I'm glad that you've solved your issue. In case it helps anyone else,
there are rules for configuring devices on Q-bus and if you follow them
exactly usually everything will work nicely.
In this case your CPU is new enough (;-)) that you can use the CONFIGURE
command at the console (it might be CONFIG, it's been a while!).
You enter each device you have (in your case an MSCP disk and a TQK70)
and
the command should tell you the CSR and vector settings for each device.
If your machine had been sufficiently old (a KA630 or an early issue
KA650 iirc), then the CONFIGURE command would not exist at the console
level an you would have to boot OpenVMS and do the same thing using the
SYSGEN program.
