You've got a Tek 31 Rick?! I thought I'd never hear of another one. Welcome
to the list.
I got mine out of a heap of stuff auctioned from the old IBM Endicott plant
back in '85. The I/O cable was with it too. Still worked, had a tape cart
with some sort of test controller program on it. Controlled a large rack of
in-house-built test gear for some of those square modules one sees on IBM
pc boards.
Finally found an Operating Manual in '97 --but it's in French! :-) Still
looking for another tape cartridge to act as backup to the only one I have.
Regards, Chris
