I think I can help with that, Jared. ;-) https://ln5.sync.com/dl/4c26d9a50/yec8iex9-n972d668-h4puu6tm-r8kxxqsu I'll leave the file up for at least a week, in case others want it. Happy tweaking.

vintageTEK Demo Board Available
Ordered one a minute ago, just because I like to support the museum. ;-) Going to see if I can come up with a nice enclosure for it. Best of the holidays to all.

Tektronix RAMS (Surplus) Store - Odd hours?
I'm having a techie garage sale this weekend, Tek stuff included. Care to make a road trip to Kent? (Washington, southeast of Seattle). And yes... Missing swap meets and surplus places is a huge part

Tektronix RAMS (Surplus) Store - Odd hours?
I corresponded with them about a month ago. At that time, most likely reopening will occur in late September. They -are- coming back. That much is definite. Just don't know when.

RSA3308A Update
No worries. I've since located the manufacturer of the board, and got a user manual. As for the SSD, I have some already. It'll be cheaper to do a PATA/SATA adapter than go for an actual PATA SSD. Tha
