[DSP-10] Anyone looking?

Tue Aug 11 09:59:02 EDT 2015

Hi Connie et al,

I had stockpiled DSP-10 related components many years ago with the 
intention of building a couple of more units because I liked my original 
one so much, and so that I would have spare EZKitLite units [Analog 
Devices ADDS-21XX-EZLITE], which I expected would become unobtanium.

Its now clear that I won't live long enough to complete all of my 
projects [not that I am about to die...just way too many projects], and 
so I am starting to clean things out.

I therefore have for sale, if the price is right, the following:

Analog Devices ADDS-21XX-EZLITE
P/N 35-000286-01
Still in original shrinkwrap, never opened, New in Box

Analog Devices ADDS-21XX-EZLITE
P/N 35-000286-01
Shrinkwrap opened to look at contents, never used, New in Box

Analog Devices ADDS-21XX-EZLITE
P/N 35-000286-01
Still in original sealed static protective wrapping from Newark, New in Box

Original TAPR DSP-10 kit with Hammond enclosure, never built.

The TAPR kits did not come with an EZKitLite, so to complete the kit you 
would also need one of the ADDS-21XX-EZLITE devices that I listed first, 
or equivalent.

At this point I am not selling my built DSP-10.

If you are potentially interested in any of the above, please contact 
me.  If there is no serious interest, these will remain in 
[climate-controlled] storage.

73,

Roger Rehr
