Allen Palmer and Joe Preston watch in amazement as the Tape Auxiliary Unit drives the tape drives on the German 1401 system.
Bob Erickson and Judith Haemmerle review the documentation for the connection of the Connecticut 1401 system to the IBM Model B typewriter.
Stan's Father Bill Kell examines the old electronic parts used to maintain the 1401 systems. He used some of the same parts to maintain some IBM equipment for TRW down under.
Ron Crane uses the vacuum to clean out bugs, dust and old electrons from one of the Pacific Power Systems linear amplifiers. Ron replaces the same resistor in two of the linear amplifiers to bring the total system back to life.
George Ahearn and Glenn Lea work on the mounting bracket for the Connecticut IBM 1401 System.
George volunteered to take the part home and machine adjusting slots to facilitate a precise mount.
