The PDP-11/83 Lives Again!

As some of you may remember, back in August I started having problems
with my PDP-11/83.
First, the breaker would trip at odd intervals. I moved all the boards
to another box and found that I started getting clock errors. Today,
after many months of being too busy to do any thing more, I took the
power supply from the 2nd box and installed it in the original 11/83
box. After moving all the cards back over and re-connecting all the
cables I finally got the system to boot, no errors! Yay!

On another note, I should have the PDP-11/73 that sits in a desk within
my cube at work up and going soon. The RD-54 arrived yesterday, and I
should be receiving a TK-50 within the next couple of days. After that,
I'll put BSD2.11 on the drive and place the thing on the net.
