I took a look at that board last evening. It's indeed an 11/73 as the
module # is M8192-YB. Thanks to the "Field Guide to Q-bus and Unibus
Modules" found at sunsite.unc.edu I found this mentioned. I had just found
that FG _at_ sunsite:)
That field guide is *really* handy! However, no maintenance has been done
on it since 1995 it seems. I have five M-numbers to add that I found in the
11/34A which are not on the list. They are for the five-board set
designated as "RK611". This RK611 is the controller set for the RK07 drives
which were hung onto the machine. The #'s are M7900 thru M7904, inclusive.
Any of you know if either this guide is just stagnant or is there a fully
maintained, up-to-date version anywhere?
The 11/23 chassis I have is the small 5" high chassis which has the plastic
bezel and several switches on the front panel which says it's an 11/23. I
did not have time to pick it up and find the BA# yet. I'll inventory the
other boards in it tonite if I am allowed into the garage;)
