[sdiy] Wanted: Multibus (late 70s microprocessor bus) extender card

Hi,

Does anyone happen to have spare, or can anyone point me in the direction of 
an inexpensive source for, an extender card for Multibus (the late 70s 
microprocessor bus standard)? I know that Digikey and Mouser list them new, 
but they are around $120 each.

I'm working on a Lexicon 224 reverb unit (a fascinating device), which uses 
a Multibus backplane and eight plug-in cards. I need to be able to work on 
these cards with them still attached to the bus - hence the need for an 
extender.

Any pointers would be much appreciated. I'm in the UK, but am happy to 
import.

Cheers,

Steve L.
