Dear Roger,

Thank you for this information.

Yes indeed I am talking about the Montagar OpenVMS VAX Hobbyist Kit (Objectnr. VAXKit) that was purchased in 2010 (!). 

Just to clarify my case a little bit more (also for the other readers):

- I will of course respect the license policies in place (we are partly a software licensing company as well so we do not want illegal use of our software as well).

- The idea is just to preserve a legacy application currently running on a MicroVAX 3400 by porting it to SIMH. This is NOT for commercial purposes. PS: We meanwhile have advanced 30 years and our applications are solely running on Windows OS, although the foundation for this was laid by using VAX/VMS.

- This is more my personal initiative as I was one of the developers in those days.

Thanks again for all you help!

Best regards, Leo.
