IME 26 Technology
The IME 26 is clearly derived from the first-generation design, technology and hardware of its predecessors, the IME 84 and 86S.
The same stylish case and elegant internal construction is used. Single-sided PCB’s are placed in the same card cage, with some slots left empty.

Most of the transisors are from COSEM, next most from TI. There are just two Raytheon transistors, in contrast to the IME 84 and 86S where over half of the transistors are Raytheon. It seems that IME’s very large supply of Raytheon transistors was finally exhausted by the time that the IME 26 was being built.
