Chris,
I looked for the thread and I can't find it either. It's almost like
someone deleted old threads, or achieved them. I will check into it.

I have not yet had time to build/test it, but a few months ago there
was an RL01/RL02 emulator project on VCF. You need a PDP-11
with RL11 controller. The RL0x emultor connects to the RL11
just as an RL01/RL02 disk drive and you can assign it any drive
number (0 - 3).
But what is really nice is that the emulator cooperates with
real RL drives. So, you can have one real RL0x drive and up
to 3 ?emulated? RL drives. The storage is a flash card.
The RT-11) command .COPY DL0:*.* DL1: works (where #0 is real,
and #1 is flash).
After the copy you pull the flash card and copy it on a PC.
I am interested in this. Does anyone have a reference/link to the thread
on "VCF"? Searching for most of these terms has not found me anything...
In fact, searching for ANYTHING on VCF finds me nothing. Curious.
Chris
