And this is the one that is installed in the Bomem Interferometer.
Dual-height card, no SLU or bootstrap. The console is from a custom
Bomem card that wants an EGA monitor and standard PC (old style 5 pin
round connector) instead of a serial terminal for the console.
It is really pretty useless for me, since the EGA monitors all appear to
be toast and I wouldn't be able to use VTServer through the custom EGA
thing.
Interestingly, though, is the fact that this custom card also interfaces
into a very large board that I believe is a vector processor.

uhm, i thought a /73 was a dual width card and
didn't have any serial
or
anything on it. am i confused?
Yes and no. There is a dual-height version of the 11/73 (KDJ11-A)
which carries the processor, MMU, FPA, cache control, etc, but no
bootstrap, SLUs, or line-tme clock. It was commonly sold as an OEM
product or as an upgrade to 11/23 systems.
