Hey folks,
On the PDP-8/e we have set up here, we have a rack-mount shelf for RK05
cartridges.
Does anyone know if there was ever such a thing for RL
cartridges? I have a fair amount of rack space on our 11/70, which is
configured with RL01 and RL02 drives, and it would be nice to have some
neat place to store them on the exhibit floor. Does it ring any bells for
anyone? Thanks! -- Ian
Are RL02 cartridges larger than RK05 cartridges? Would RL02 cartridges not
fit in this rack?

Yes, they are slightly thicker. I tried inserting RLs in the RK05 rack we
have on our 8/e and they wouldn't fit. From the fit in the photo, I think
we might have the same problem. But thanks for passing it along! -- Ian
