RADIX-50
RADIX-50, commonly called "Rad-50", is a character encoding created by DEC for use on their PDP series and DECsystem-10 and DECSYSTEM-20 computers. RADIX-50's 40-character repertoire (050 in octal) allows up to 3 characters to be encoded and packed into 16 bits (PDP-11) or 6 characters plus flag information into one 36-bit word (PDP-6, PDP-10, DECsystems).
