Not that it is important, but I also have a BM8L .
I send you paper copies of the documentation, but that was already some years before. (
~2004)
I could use a pic of the innards, for when I actually get around to doing something with
it !
Further rare PDP8 items in my home : a fully maxed up 8A. (128K memory, RL01 drive, and
FPP-8A )
Furthermore some omnibus boards for hardware acceleration of an OCR application.

that,
though.
The BM8L adds up to 28K for a maximum of 32K.
(It extends the IF and DF to
the full 3 bits, so I'm quite sure it goes beyond 16K.)
I have only seen your pictures of this - it sounds very interesting but I agree
they can't have made many of them.
