I suspect you mean 'model 3' here. The 179x was used in the model 2, but
absolutely right! key adjacency.
Normally I wouldn't bother ('People who live in glass houses...' and all
that) but in this case the 'adjacent key' does make a differnce. Had you
said 'Mosel 3' I would not have bothered.
Anyway, from what I rememebr (and it's several years sicne I fired up the
Model 1), the LDOS disk format is pretty compatible between the M1 and
M3. An M3 vcan write an LDOS disk that will be correctly read on the M1.
