Which PDP8 does the OP have? From an earlier comment I
gathered it was an
Omnibus machine, but maybe I misread that. In that case I think you do
have to make some modification to the serial interface PCB (and it is
likely to be one PCB on those machines)
I had thought that Philipp had an older machine, since he didn't seem
interested in looking for a KL8J/M8655 board (which would easily solve
his problem with the VT05 on an Omnibus machine).
However, checking the archives, I see that he has an 8/e with a KL8E
board. So you have remembered correctly.
