Zane and Allison have been chatting, figured I'd chime in....

The most common "upgrade" was to replace this card with a two card set of
the 11/03 (M7270?) and the M8044-Dx 64KB card.
I believe that without modification the Heath backplane is a _16 bit_
backplane. (as opposed to the default 18 bit on most LSI 11 machines). I
know that I was unsuccessful getting anything other than the 11/03 cards
running in it.
OK. I'll go back to the card and get it [floppy]
working.
This is ideal since the Heath Floppy drives can format RX01 media whereas
the DEC drives will not.
Get manuals
for it! you'll save pain.
Any pointers on where to lay hands on H-11 docs?
The H11:
DEC M7294 11/03 (Quad width card with 4k ram on board)
Got it. The card itself is about as simple as any Qbus card.
It is, I take it,
supposed to be nominally RXV11 compatible from a driver standpoint, yes?
