ftp it to where I want it (since the 11/70 is on my network?actually at one
point it was on the internet where anybody could log-in). I can also do
that with RK05?s and RX02?s. ;-)

I have a similar setup, a DR11 in a 11/34. It is more or less directly
connected to a bidirectional parallel port on a PC that runs a small
server written with eRTOS (DOS based), for the PDP side I have written a
full RT11 driver, so I can do things like COPY/DEV/FILE and even boot from
an image over the DR11. The transfer rate is about 75 kb/s.

It uses a simple 8 but parallel bus-like fully interlocked protocol,
byte by byte. The send side raises a data available bit, the receiver
grabs it, then raises an acknowledge. The sender then drops the
available, and then waits until the receiver drops the acknowledge. I can. I use a DR11 parallel port on an 11/24 to
transfer the files.
Interesting. I'd like to see how you tackled that (I can imagine
wanting a couple of layers of integrity-checking, for one).
