Annoyingly the PDP-11/04 and 34, which had a panel

there's no help there.
I wonder if that's because on the 11/04 and 11/34 the boards go in
from the top of the box whereas on the 8/a the boards go in from the
front. Therefore you have to remove the frontpanel to insert/remove
boards on the 8/a but you don't on the 11's. The 11's panel is rarely
removed.
