Yes, I enjoyed it and met Doug, Marvin and John. I found 2 boxes of cards
most with the (gold) edge connectors cut off. Included were
1) 3 GE flip flop cards with transistors removed, dated 1957,
2)many small cards about 7 by 10cm (single sided with jumpers, extra holes)
with up to 8 transistors, made by ? (IBM?), about 1962,
3)a 8 stage shift register with 923 RTL with a delay line (16 caps, 16
toroid inductors),
4) 2 core memory modules(?) for a Motorola bus system, 2x43 pin edge
connector, 5/32" contact spacing.
5) 2 blank unknown S-100 cards.

6)Many transistor cards with types like 2N1305 or 2N404, some built on a PC
board, some hand wired with staked terminals, some prototypes on punched
Vector boards.

The only DEC card is part of a M710 "punch control" card from 1972.

There was a lot of consumer electronics which I threw away - TV, VCR
boards, etc.

Am looking at scanners so I can post some of this stuff.
