To all who provided kind assistance and advice.
Finally had the time to properly power up some 11/83 Qbus
cards. A KDJ-11B and 2 MSV1J's in a BA213 chassis, formerly
a DECserver 550. The following is the power messages.

Continuing on to the next step is providing some storage
media to hold RSX11M. I have a CMD SCSI controller to start
with. I suppose by the time I finish SimH will look to be the easier
route, but old hardware has a bit of a class to it.
