Need covers for a PDP-11/05
Some time ago I acquired a PDP-11/05 computer that is missing the top
and bottom covers. This is a problem because the backplane pins are
exposed and are easily bent. Does anybody have one or two covers that
would fit a PDP-11/05 computer, or know where I can find them? I
measured the chassis dimensions - they are approximately 17" wide by
26" long. I wouldn't mind paying for the covers.

What chasis? Look on the back for a BA-??? number and post ALL of it.

Re: Need covers for a PDP-11/05
I looked all around the case and did not find a BA- part number. The
exact measurements, however, are 17" wide by 25.5" long, with screws
along the 25.5" sides. Any PDP-11 cover of those dimensions ought to
suffice - I can drill screw holes if necessary.
