Any information on TSS-8 is always greatly appreciated [I have a
decent collection started] as well as hardware or actual software.

The version that John Wilson used and the one that I used at UW-M are
up at www.bitsavers.org/bits/dec/ascii (basic, johw, uwmMonitor)
Binary paper tape images from John are at bits/dec/pdp8/papertapeImages/set1
The LINCtapes from Lyle Bickley's PDP-12 should have a bunch of material as
well.
Various versions of the manuals are at www.bitsavers.org/pdf/dec/pdp8/tss8/

Finding hardware capable of running the monitor will be difficult. RF08's
were rare 20 years ago. All but the last versions of TSS/8 required either
DF32s or RF08s for swapping, but DF32s are only 32kwords. Bob Supnik has
TSS/8 running in simulation with SIMH.
