A friend of mine is very involved with packet radio, and the software at the repeaters still runs on CP/M, because it works, and nobody wants to go to the effort of porting it. It may not be practical for him to take them, but there are packet radio groups all over the country, so he can probably point you at the nearest if needed. If I can find the drive, I would not mind donating it. But the controller is still needed for my Z-80 system. It also interfaces with a 5-1/4" and 3-1/2" floppy drives, and a 20M hard drive. It is sort of a CP/M 2.2 system with ccp replaced with Z???. (I can not remember the correct letters for the Z-80 code replacement.) On the other hand, I may still have a bunch of extra S-100 cards laying around. The CP/M system is all S-100 cards, but I used to have more then one S-100 system. While I am cleaning out stuff, I should probably find a home for my Sparc-Station II, and a bunch of SCSI drives.
