You're fine, as long as your 11/73 has less than 248 kbytes in it.
The RLV11 won't DMA any higher than 18-bits; if you've got 256kbytes
or more of RAM, you want a RLV21.

Oh, yes, the backplane: You need two adjacent slots with the "CD"
bus. Depending on what else you have, this may not be possible in a BA23.

No, the RLV11's won't, but a RL11 will.
