I'm jealous. I've only got a few LSI-11s, and 03s at that.

I don't know where to get extras, but quite a few years agot I
bought an RL01, but they shipped two #1 plugs instead of including
a #0. After either finding something that told me the codes or
making a good guess (it's been about 10 years and I don't remember)
I found that I could create a #0 from a #1 by filing off the right
spot on one of the prongs. Of course, then I filed off the number
and applied one from a label maker. Looks pretty goo actually.
Unfortunately, I don't remember off hand if you can create a #2 or
#3 from a #0 or #1. If you can't find another solution and
nobody remembers off-hand, I'll try to look it up for you.

I just decided it'd be better to go ahead and look. However, I
found it's not in my paper docs. If no one else knows, I'll see
if I can dig up my microfilm reader and look it up on the microfilm
I've got.
