Welcome to the Stuff section

The stuff section contains various fine items, most of them related to electronics, computers, science in general. I like vintage electronics, test equipment and computers.

VINTAGE CALCULATORS SECTION

Contains my calculator collection

SOVIET PUNCH TAPE READER FOR A MISSILE

You'd be surprised of what you can find on electronic fleemarkets...

Mystery keyboard like device - a contest

Tell me what this is, and you get a link on this site. Not much, I know, but atleast something :-)

The C1-112 oscilloscope: A simple soviet scope. AFAIK it is a copy of a french scope. I have the manual. The schematics part is available for download. It is very large, namely 10MB. So be careful when you decide to download it. It was my first scope

This is my Atari Portfolio. An 8bit Intel 80C88 processor with an OS similar to DOS. It is in working condition, but I haven't used it in many years. 

Vintage memory media: Some punch cards from some soviet computer, a punch tape roll and a strange IOMEGA diskette. 

The HP3476 multimeter. I still use it. Looks GREAT from the inside. Fully gold plated board.

The Tektronix 455 oscilloscope

Another of my old scopes. The Tektronix 455. I bought it as a dead one, but repaired it. Heh, 450Sk (15Euro), a fine buy. I got the manual in PDF, if you want it, contact me via email (see the About section, or the main page for the contact form).

Misc stuff

The IBM 7864: A data collection terminal. While looking for something else I came upon these buggers. They've all got a 8088 processor, a barcode scanner and fail to boot up. Only 1 of 3 was functional, the rest had broken displays. All I've been able to find out about this one, is that it was probadly a prototype, or a series of not bery popular items.

Some 186 military board: Little is known about this board. It's most likely military and a part of a larger system. It's on a 3 layer ceramic PCB. It's got a 186 processor, a PLD, a few memories, some mystery chips. I kept it out of curiosity. If you have any info on what it is exactly, please contact me.

Mystery corner:

Here I post my items that I'm not sure of what they are. 

-Solved-

This is a protective heated window. It's russian/soviet made, it's approx. 4cm thick. When I'll be building a tank I'll be sure to include it in it.
