Well, I do not know (did not check...) the PDP-10 support in SIMH
*if* it is available. Otherwise you could add the PDP-10 :-)
I am still working (though it's been a year since I actually have
spent time on it) on a self-made PDP-11/40 console that can be
connected to E11. However, that would also require some work to
be done by John Wilson. Within a few months I will start work on
the adaptation of the SIMH code to include this *real* console.
E11 support is for later ...
For an impression see www.pdp-11.nl click the link "homebrew PDP-11".

Any chance you guys might try do this for a PDP-10? ;-) A KA10 front
panel would be a bit bigger, but would provide plenty of
room for the more complex emulator circuitry...
And yes, I know there are software-based '10 emulators, but for
some reason I can't explain, I've always desired a hardware-based
10 emulator (like the XKL, only affordable).

SIMH supports the KS10 (it didn't have a front panel, just something like three
switches), for KL10B support you need to go with KLH10 (or maybe TS10, I'm not sure
how far it has progressed). Only the KS10 and KL10 are currently supported by emulation.
I believe the FPGA Clone being done by David G. Conroy is a cross between a KA10 and the
KL/KS. I think the one that Neil Franklin's working on is a cross between a KS, KL,
and XKL10.
For a rundown on the mostly current state of PDP-10 emulation, see:

SIMH doesn't currently include any support for connecting real hardware does it?
ISTR, that E11 has at least partial support for this.
