11/73 does support RL02, I know I have one connected. When the /73
come up if the switches are set tight it will either boot straight away
or prompt for a boot.
If you send a formatted file it must look exactly like what you type right
down to the LFs (without CRs). If you aare typing it in to a file to send
likely CRs are being added where you dont want them.

Ah yes, BUT my 11/73 is a model of SMS-1000 which unfortunatly does not
support the RL02's. All it supports DU:, TK50, and one other device.
Eventually I want to add a MXV11 and maybe SCSI, then relocate it to a BA23
enclosure (BA23's go great at the end of a couch :^).

I wrote it originally under DOS, then redid it under UNIX. I'll have to
double check that I've got LFs and not CRs. Thanks for the confirmation.
I figured it was along these lines I was having difficulty.
