<DIV>Oh my, from the limited info I have, I can see that now! And in fact,
they're not upside down in the pic as that orientation is correct for the
FR-900. Wow! </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I hope you can use them!</DIV>

<DIV>Over on the oldvtrs list, someone pointed out this eBay item:
110459620505</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Several of us immediately identified them, not as quad modules, but as
VPR-7900 modules. Then another member pointed out that they were the
wrong size which caused me to take a closer look. I have just checked
the actual machines to be certain, and also checked the manuals and the
Ampex part number guide. Now, this has turned into a major
mystery. Here's what I can tell you with absolute
certainty:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> 1) The style of the front panels is like the
7900 series (ground jacks and board function listed at the bottom of each
module...they are upside down in the pic), but the module functions, layout
and part numbers do not match the 7900 (or 7800) series. They are
also the wrong size.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> 2) The part numbers listed are all in the range of the
part numbers used for the quad machines! The part numbers for the 7900
series was entirely different.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The seller seems quite sure that these were from a 2" quad.
The part numbers seem to indicate that could be the case. Anyone have
any ideas????? Perhaps something from special products
division???? This is extremely curious!!!</DIV>
