I would certainly be interested in a copy of the PPR spreadsheet! Can you post it to this thread?
Thanks,
Steve

Here's the "work-in-progress" Excel version of the PPR. The three buttons are to generate the binary, punch a block, or do a combined punch of all the contiguous sheets prefixed by a number track. It follows standard G15 practice of uvwxyz instead of abcedf hexidecimal. The arcane L numbers are filled in for the line31 opcodes if left blank. Jumps to vacant locations and code with no antecedent are flagged. I'm using it a lot to write test routines to debug my gate level simulation. The punched tapes load into the Kimpel emulator just fine. Let me know if there are any bugs to fix.
I posted the spreadsheet. Seems to be awaiting moderator approval.

I love His videos on the Centurion series, but I am completely facinated by these Bendix videos. They are great. There really isnt much out there on these old machines done in such an enjoyable format to watch.

The G-15 in the videos is being restored for https://museum.syssrc.com, as djg mentioned.
The G-15 in this thread is being restored for a local computer museum in Boulder, Colorado. Progress has been slow due to health problems, etc. Hope to pick it up again in the spring.
