I goofed on this one, it is the M8192. It makes sense that its an OEM
version, since these were OEM'd by SMS so they really aren't true
PDP-11/73's I guess, but I'm hoping they will be easier to get up and
running than the /44.

No, I haven't. But now that I know it exists I've got it, took me a few
minutes searching and I've got it. I found was what was supposed to be a
stock list for one of the resellers, and this is what I had been using.
It's a very complete list, and had all the DEC MicroVAX stuff that I've got
on it I believe, but it's lacking on the PDP-11 cards.
I found the list at

It's a 34-pin and a 10-pin. If it's a MFM controller doesn't sound like
it's much use to me at this point. Especially if the ESDI controller will
work.
