[Info-vax] vax4000

[nierveze]

hello everyone
I have a vax4000/100 .I think of using it to drive a 7 feet dish (an old 
wheather radar) with two dc motors to move it in azim and elev and two 16 
bits optical encoders to get the position.Most of the thing is already 
built.
I know that a pc can do it but I think that most of you will agree that with 
a vax it is lot more funny!!!
The vax has two connectors at the rear pannel for an external qbus box.
I have lots of drv11 cards.
The questions are:
what are the réferences (part numbers) of the cables and the
interface and the'box'?Ideas where to find this at reasonable cost would be 
appreciated
It is for my hobby not professional or commercial use,the dish will be used 
as a small-radio telescope and for ham activities (I am f1gqb).
Thanks for your help
best regards
A.Niervèze
