Tony,
That's the bugger! You just gave me the clue: one of my pdp-15s had the
power supply for the XVM-15 memory box robbed before I got it; 'they' wanted
to keep it for spares for pdp-11s. (It used the same 'black box' regulator
bricks).
Getting the -15 running was a higher priority that keeping my 11/35 intact,
so I 'sacrificed' the power supply from my 11/35 to power the pdp-15 memory.
The remains of the old 11/35 chassis must be lurking in a corner, that's why
I couldn't find it.
This is good news, it means I'll be able to build a 10.5" 11/35 (which is
what I want) out of the chassis of the 11/34 I just bought on ePay... :-) I
had no idea if the chassis/PSU was even vaguely similar... memory failing!
I will of course pay due attention to the regulators required.
Thanks to all who replied
Mike
