Thank you for this. I just learned about the f-14 computer two weeks ago. Amazing how much more advanced it was than the CPU offerings from Intel, MOS, Zilog, etc. Consumers wouldn't see chips that powerful for another 15+ years!

I was a tech for Datapoint UK back in the day and worked on the 2200 which was a main component of the British Rail TOPS system for freight management. Apart from occasional faults with the cassette deck the most common fault was the switched mode power supply. Later I also worked on the 6600 which was part of the UK Ford dealer network. Ford mandated the system if dealers wanted warranty claims honoured!

British Rail TOPS was a major account for Datapoint 2200s! Unfortunately, many knew them as "Ventek" computers (Ventek was the Datapoint reseller in the UK until Datapoint bought them from TRW). Would love to contact you, re. Datapoint / TOPS memories, but don't know how!

Helpful, but the "HARPA AI" didn't know the correct spelling of "Scelbi" is NOT Selby! Scelbi was one (of half-a dozen) 8008-based microcomputers some claim to be the "first personal computer," all before the next-generation Intel 8080 chip was announced!

It is a good tuner. I can use it to tune a T2LT antenna for the 11 meter band, to work on 10, 12, 15 and 17 meters band, and on a part of the 20 meters band. Does the job with the poor antenna.

Before you buy junk like this for more than $40... take a look inside a high quality manual tuner made by heathkit, yaessu, or kemwood. Divide rated power of MFJ by 3 to 5 ..and that is what the components and wires sizes should be spec'd for. You can buy a true 500 watt rated tuner used for less than new cost of this stuff.

Some sheep’s are not left alone in the nights, there are some brave men on the trails and the female sheep’s are very cautious, for obvious reason, it’s lucky there is no offspring from mana sheep, or is there?
