Do you know if this is BASIC/RT that the 8/E/M handbook 1973 referred to for the LAB-8/E (pg 2-36)? Anyone seen documentation for it? I would be interested in getting a copy if you read it. If its a series like the LBASA set for normal basic the entire set of tapes would be good. Since interest here this is what I posted to alt.sys.pdp8. I think with the alosa tape and this manual you should be able to create it. http://dustyoldcomputers.com/pdp-common/reference/papertapes/dec-8e.html http://www.pdp8online.com/pdp8cgi/query_docs/view.pl?id=167

Found the problem , it loads into field 1 with the bin loader also in 1. Now loads and auto starts, I think its in fact a multi part as it starts before the end of the file and as im loading from my terminal emulator we loos the last bit, its maybe an optional overlay, the file maybee needs split. I found the user manual , thats how I found out about the loading. Link to the bin and a pdf of the user manaul here https://www.dropbox.com/sh/dmi0r7s0v5jsp0c/-14bOM0wD4 I guess its not in Bitsavers, could someone let Al know ? , unless hes allready seen this that is .
