[vcf-midatlantic] Datanetics Keyboard

[Jeff Galinat]

Hi all,
  I am going to be a vendor at VCF Midwest and I have a working Datanetics
keyboard that I was thinking of selling. This is not the Apple II specific
keyboard but it appears to use the same keyswitches with the slanted stem.
This is a working KB that I cleaned up & painted the scratched up metal
enclosure. I realize that these Datanetics switches are pretty rare to
find. I am interested in selling the keyboard as a unit and if the buyer
wants to part it out for the switches that is their business.
  The previous owner had installed 5v & -12v power supplies in the
enclosure so the unit is self powered via a switched power cord. The -12v
supply was bad when I got it so it was replaced.
I tested the keyboard using a pair of TIL-311 hex displays and the proper
ASCII codes are generated.   I have included a link to pictures of the
keyboard including pics showing the codes for ‘space’, ‘CR’ and ‘A’.

Since the switches are rare, I was thinking $300 as a price range for this
KB. This is somewhat negotiable so feel free to contact me off-list with
any offers/questions. Also please be aware that I will also be in the NJ
area about 10 days after VCF-MW for a meet up.

Best regards,
