This isn't one, see below.

Are you saying here that PC full height is the same as
3 1/2 full height ( != 5 1/4 full height) ?

nice info, thanks.
BTW I may have a lead on that panel.

This is one of those 11/23's that look like it's in a little rollcage
(sim. MINC?)... it's called a DEC DataSystem, it's the one I
mentioned on list as being in a semi-sealed case. Don't ask me
yet if its Q/CD-or-Q22-or-? yet, I'm still learning Q busses.
