Rick,
I'm not an expert on either the KM11 or the /34a, though I too have a
working /34a. AFAIK, the KM11 is not compatible with the /34a. However,
in addition to the processors mentioned above, I believe the /70 can take
advantage of two (one for the CPU, one for the FP11?), and the RK05 can
take one [both of which I also have]. Fairly certain there are a good
number of other peripherals that can use the KM as well.
Wish I could come across a pair. Someday when I'm wealthy I'll buy the
kit from Guy.

From what
I've been able to tell, these boards can be used for
diagnosing things at the
microcode level on (at least) the first
generation microcoded Unibus PDP 11's (11/35, 11/45, 11/05) as well as
diagnosis of the RK11 disk controllers (with an appropriate plastic
overlay for the indicator lights). The question I have is can this be
used on an 11/34a to step through the microcode?
