There is a big silver sticker on one of the 40-pin DIPs from which this
C3987-C came from. This number was listed as a sub-assy number, IIRC. There
is a longer number at the top of the sticker. I'll post it tomorrow.

There is a tape drive and 5.25" hard drive in the MicroPDP. The tape looks
like it takes a TU58-size tape (could it be a TU58?) Also, there's a
third-party dual width card with light blue ejector handles with "UDC11"
stamped in white letters on one. Don't know where the ribbon cable goes
that's connected to it. I'll take the BA11 chassis out and peek inside
tonight and report what I find on these questions.

Thanks for the input Tim.

Regards, Chris
