“I need to find a new home for a PDP-11/70. It’s got a magtape drive, a bunch of RK05s, and a laboratory interface. I understand it once graced the Wellington Hospital Laboratory with its presence. Currently it lives in suburban Wellington.”
Ethan (elb) is picking up a gaggle of PDP-11/34s, this weekend.
Looking for Unix-11 for PDP-11 - #6 by elb. He might be able to give this 11/70 a new home. But he’s in NY, and you’re in NZ—one letter away, but so many kilometres apart…
I’ve never got a clear picture of the various PDP-11 models. Here’s a FAQ, for anyone in the same situation:

I would dearly love to have an 11/70, but I feel like the shipping would be impractical.
