    Won a Telecom Box at an auction

    I won a telecom box at an auction for $10. It was a Focus 50 from American Telecom Inc.

    Had a large power supply board, and wiring and connectors, and I have pictures of the other boards/cards that were in it.

    Not really sure what I have here. One card had silver windowed eproms. Are the cards motherboard grade? I also have no idea about the large connector/pin board. Any info is appreciated. Thanks! - Ryan

    You may want to check on ebay to see if any of the boards are saleable. Mike.

    You're right, not sure why I hadn't looked at that. I sell on ebay all the time.

    Haven't found much on the telecom boards, but I did grab a couple things next to me when I was on the computer and look them up. One of them was this:

    I love that you said customer service and prices:-) Customer service is as important for them as it is for us.
    There may a million better places to live than Iowa, but none of them are home!
