------------------------------------------------------------------------ FIELD GUIDE TO Q-BUS AND UNIBUS MODULES 04 FEB 1995 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Compiled and Maintained by Ronald Copley --------------------------------------------------------------------- Introduction This list is an attempt to coalesce all net knowledge on PDP-11 UNIBUS and Q-bus modules. It is designed to supercede all the various homespun lists floating around -- giving one solid source of information. An expansion is in progress: the Field Guide will now cover *any* Q-bus (or Q-22 bus) and UNIBUS modules, be they VAX, uVAX or PDP. This list may always be found on sunsite.unc.edu, in the following directory: /pub/academic/computer-science/history/pdp-11/hardware/field-guide.txt (Tons of stuff here... thanks, Tim!) This list may also be found on the following sites: 1) ftp.village.org in /pub/pdp-11/field-guide.txt Dworkin keeps a compressed version here, too. 2) ftp.update.uu.se in /pub/pdp11/doc/field-guide.txt Johnny's site has quite a plethora of PDP-11 stuff, along with files/software pertaining to Pros and DECmates. 3) lenin.cc.rochester.edu in /pub/orphans/dec/pdp-11/field-guide.txt Tom is maintaining a site for orphaned computers, so there's a lot more than the Field Guide here. Good job, Tom! I will post this list as updates dictate to the PDP-11 newsgroup (vmsnet.pdp-11). At any rate, it will probably be posted in a terrifyingly irregular manner. The list will no longer be posted to comp.sys.dec and comp.sys.dec.micro, and I don't have access to alt.sys.pdp-11, so vmsnet.pdp-11 will be the only newsgroup in which to find the Field Guide (unless some kind soul snags it from vmsnet.pdp-11 and posts it to alt.sys.pdp-11). To insure the growth and survival of this list, please do any of the following that you find appropriate: 1) Send me your Q-bus or UNIBUS module list. 2) Make corrections to this list and send them to me. Just make sure you send anything you have to me. If you have relevant hardcopy and you don't feel like typing it in, get in contact with me and we'll work something out. We owe a great amount of thanks to Tim Shoppa, Johnny Billquist, Dworkin Muller and all others who maintain PDP-11 ftp sites. Also, a great deal of respect is to be accorded to *anyone* attempting to hook a PDP-11 to the net, or running one currently connected, for that matter. The same for anyone, anywhere who *doesn't* put a PDP-11 into the dumpster. Or the smelter. Etc. If you don't know what to do with it, call/email me -- I'll take it, or find a good home for it.
