No, haven't tried.

The SPD for V7 says it will run on any PDP-11 processor with memory
management and EIS. It also needs at least 128KB of memory and a
clock. IIRC, the /23+ has 22-bit memory management. Does the /23
have 18-bit memory management? If so, and you meet the other
requirements, it should work.

Good luck,

John
