Hi Paul,
You also have what looks very much like a DecMate in the bottom, left of:

Of course, that's another pdp-8! I have a DecMate III which I picked
up at a Radio Rally, but it doesn't have an RX50, so I can't get
it to do anything, apart from display its bios screen.
I haven't tried it personally, but if you don't have an RX50 handy,
you might try strapping a Teac FD55-GFR 5.25" drive to the RX33
settings and see if it works. You might be able to at least boot
something up and watch it go.
