I remember ~10 or so people got nice cheap mostly working Heathkit 3400's at VCF 10 last year.
Anyone do anything with theirs?
Someone today sent me a question through my web site about terminal settings for the 3400 monitor program, I pulled my 3400 system out and fired it up to test and confirm mine is 2400 7/n/2
Was it Andy Welburn who asked you? Or someone else? Andy has been working in the past few weeks restoring and fixing/repairing an ETA-4000 (the rs232/BASIC/monitor add-on module for an et-4000) which was missing among other things both of the code ROMs and even the address decoder prom! He was able to figure out the prom contents based on the eta-4000 manual and schematics, but still could use a dump from an actual ETA-4000 to ensure that his guessed dump is correct.
Yup. We had a few back and forth messages. I offered to dump RAM but I guess he got what he needed elsewhere.
Anyone else? I exhibited mine at VCF 2014
I have a couple of ET-3400s, but I've never been able to get my hands on one of those wonderful expansion units. -Dave -- Dave McGuire, AK4HZ New Kensington, PA
