Humm, perhaps the power supply will have to goto auction :-) Someone
else is interested. However, the power supply for the 4000-600 will also
be available but that may take a bit more time.

Thanks for the price suggestion. As it happens, I have a shipping scale
being shipped to me to make internet shipments possible, and I could use
it to determine the value of the SQ739 that will become available when
my 4000-600 is decommissioned. At over $1000 per ounce (current price of
gold), that Dilog board may become quite lucrative :-) :-) :-) :-)

I also have a smaller power supply for the smaller version of the
4000-200. I guess I have to take the time to inventory this.


The big 4000-200 PSU is a H7874.
the small 4000-200 PSU is a H7868-A

The 4000-600 is H7874

and the DSSI cabinet power supply is also H7874.

So I would be able to dispose of 2 H7874 in short term. And a 3rd one
later on.

I have KDA50 (never used), and a *** DELQUA **** (ohh! yeah baby !),
TK50 and TK70 controllers , RDQX3 (RD53/54 drives), and serial DHV11/DHQ11s.

One of my 2 microvax IIs will also be made available. Am keeping the
first one as a souvenir. I paid big bucks for it.
