Restoring a DEC 340 Monitor

I misread the title and initially thought that it would be about the DEC VT340, a graphics terminal that I used a lot back in the 80s. Interesting that product numbers were reused.

I made a more detailed title, but someone changed it to the title of the blog post.

It's not a VT series terminal, but a Type 340 CRT vector display. The "Type" designations were used with early DEC products.

When you're in business as long as DEC was, I think that inevitable if you want the product numbers to be short and memorable.
