  Hi Jerome,
      Sorry I did not pose the question very well.
 I am trying to get back to the original issue.
 Which is:
        1. I have an 11/94 with a missing cpu board.
        2. The correct CPU board as you know is too expensive.
        3. Please will somebody give me a low cost alterative in a form
 I can understad.
        4. So all I want is for somebody to say is something like:
          " Put CPU board type KDJ11-xx (M????-??) in slot 1."         
Practically speaking, if you can't get a KDJ11-E M8981 PDP-11/94 or /93
board, the next best is a KDJ11-BF M8190-AE which is the 18MHz board
with floating point accelerator used in an 11/84 or 11/83.  But any
KDJ11-B would do, the permutations being 18MHz or 15MHz, and with or
without FPA.  The plain M8190 (no suffix) KDJ11-BC can't have an FPA added.
The other common flavour of KDJ11 is the MM7554 used in the 11/53 but
that can't use PMI (which you need).
All the above are quad-height boards.  You do not want the dual-height
KDJ11-A.
             " Put a memory card type MSV11-xx
(M????-??) in slot2." 
MSV11-J, M8637, or failing that, MSV11-RA, M7458.  Look in
http://www.dunnington.u-net.com/public/PDP-11/QBus_memory to see how
much memory the various versions have.  One or two MSV11-JD would be best.
           " Put another (optional) memory card
type MSV11-xx (M????-??)
 in slot3."   
See above. And that is the correct order.  If you only get one memory
board you may also need a Minimum Load Module for slot 3.
