While being active here with my Mullard E7600/4 I saw the old computer section again. Recently I posted a demo on YouTube showing my PDP11/20 and also a demo of my Holborn 6500. I have no idea if this is of any interest here... I guess a few people from here are also active on vcfed.org... But it doesn't hurt to show it here as well I think.
Don't take this one too serious please
One can show programmers stuff, I thought I do something different. I hope you like it. And don't mention the way I close the lower RK05 at the end
This is not like DEC explains it in the manual...
The PDP11/20 was quite a tour getting it online again.

I did a topic about restoring the RK05 drives

And A story about the PDP11/20
https://forum.vcfed.org/index.php?th...storing.80723/
I didn't do a story on the TC11 and TU56H unfortunately. But it came don to a few broken TTL chips, two burned motor driver boards, bad capacitors in the H720 power, and the two motor capacitors were bad as well...
I still have to fix my 4KW core memory module, but at least it is complete.
I made the demo of the Holborn 6500 back in 2014 and I though it was horrible when I watched it again. But I never made a new video so I posted it anyway.

Recently I tested the machine again, but I have to replace some foam pads in the Keytronic keyboard. Oh well, these old beasts will keep you busy...
