I jumped to soon, I checked into the two board set and Dwight is indeed correct about the
channel board only being test signals. When I got my first "surplus" system, it
came with dual connectors and had both cards plugged into cables that ran to the back and
the internal drive. Why they kept both cables now is a mystery...

Hi
I forgot to mention. Only one of the two disk cards has the
top edge connectors used. The other is just for test access.

I think the cable you are talking about was to allow you to control two
external DD drives through the 37-pin connector on the back and ALSO the
internal drive as DD with the cable what went to the 50-pin on that
drive. I also have one and it works that way, if I am thinking of the
cable you are referring to.
