Hehe. I just walked over and checked (nice having my office and the shop where my
stuff is stored all in once place). One of my LA-120s (DEC Writer III) has APL keycaps.
I haven't checked to see if it has the requisite ROM(s) to be able to print APL
characters
though.
Keeping my fingers crossed for when I actually have time to actually set up and run
some of this stuff...it's been too long...way too long.

several of the LB, most of the others so far
except the KJ, LM and PK
FYI, these options are described in vol. 2 of the maintenance manual:
<http://terminals.classiccmp.org/wiki/index.php?title=DEC_LA36>
You need the -LB (expander option) for -KV, -KW, -KX, -KY -LA, and -PK
options.
- LAXX-KV Forms Control Option Kit
- LAXX-KW Selective Addressing Option
- LAXX-KX Automatic Answerback Option
- LAXX-KY Forms Control, Vertical Tabulation and Horizontal Tabulation Option
- LAXX-LA Automatic Line Feed Option
- LAXX-LB Expander Option Mounting Kit
- LAXX-PK APL Option Kit
The PK (APL font) one would be the nice one to have. Note that there
are special APL printed keycaps that go with this option. The
maintenance manual didn't seem to mention the keycaps when I scanned
through it, but I remember LA36s outfitted at udel with the APL option
and they had the labelled keycaps.
