unfortunately grandpa died some 20 years ago and the collection has been liquidated by greedy members of the family (read most of them). the only thing i got was a massive roll of rosin core 60-40 solder, which i still haven't used up yet. i kind of wanted to make the ancient tv run doom. -
check your tax codes, donations to science might be tax deductable.

my head canon is that its an 8 track. my grandpa was an electronics repairman so i saw all kinds of gizmos visiting the grandparents. they also collected antiques. when there was some overlap awesomeness ensued. old timey radios, betamax, a very early tv with a tiny screen, all functional of course. -

im remembering an article i read a week ago so it may not specifically be the tx buffer. voyager's memory has fared better than mine. looks like its not a tx buffer proper but an intermediate buffer for formatting the data for transmission. still something you can address to an unused block.
