Emulex SCSI Controllers available...

[Lyle Bickley]

I was chatting with a DEC broker recently regarding SCSI controllers for 
DEC gear - when he mentioned that he had a quantity of Emulex UC07's 
available.

UC07's are QBUS cards which have a single SCSI port and support either MSCP 
or TMSCP (in RT land, that would be either DU or MU devices). The manual 
states that the UC07 is compatible with RT, RSX, RSTS/E and Ultrix 
versions which support MSCP or TMSCP.

The dealers initial price was high (as expected). However, he then 
added - "I'd be willing to do better for hobbyists - as long as they 
commit that the boards will only be used for hobby purposes - and not for 
commercial use". 

So here's the "deal": $235 per UC07 plus shipping from Mountain View, CA 
(FedEx Ground).

I've paid MUCH more for SCSI interfaces for my DEC QBUS and UNIBUS 
systems - so IMHO, this is a great deal.

The broker said he did not want to deal "individually with a bunch of 
hobbyists" - so he asked if I would be willing to consolodate a single 
order of UC07's to him. I reluctantly said "yes", as this is not my 
business and I'm not interested in making money on this deal - only 
covering costs.

To get a sense of interest, please reply to me privately if you'd like one 
or more if these "critters".

The manual for the UC07 is available on bitsavers. A link to a bitsavers 
mirror is below:
