1946 Telechron 8H59 "Musalarm"
#23

Morzh, I remember the PDP11. Was working for a 3rd party bio-med company who was authorized service for American Optical Medical. One of the VA Hospitals had this CAMS (Cardiac Advanced Monitor System) that used a PDP 11 and a gigantic hard disk drive (dunno the capacity, but I assume that it was less than 10 MB). The purpose of the computer was to capture about 10-30 sec of EKG on monitored patients before an "event" such as a MI, outbreak of tachycardia, PVCs, etc. for about 20 beds. As I remember, the thing was about 10 ft long x 5 ft high x 3 ft deep, not including the hard drive. I never had to actually service the computer, my job was to change the disk and reboot it. Had to set the boot address with all those switches in the front of the conputer.
