most conversions have MFM type drives,
can I use DSSI such as a KFQSA? and what type of ethernet controller?
As far as I can tell, anything that's PDP-11 compatible works with
my converted KDJ11, including DELQA and DEQNA ethernet, RQZX1 SCSI,
RQDX3, and a TK50 drive hanging off a TQK70 board. I don't know
about tthe KFQSA.
I don't believe I've ever heard about someone using DSSI on a PDP-11.
No idea if that would work or not. I think it would in part depend
on if it appears as simply another MSCP device.
Try it and let us know! :^)
