got said uVAX II.
Given the part numbers listed below could anyone tell me about them
(other
than the obvious ;-) )?

These are a basic set of XXDP (XXDP++) disks for a microPDP-11/23.

This is great Pete, thanks very much. I printed and filed the index with my
disks. In a month or two I may have time to fire up my Micro PDP-11 and see
how they work. But first . . .
Two more questions:
1.) Are the HELP.TXT files found on a couple of disks fairly detailed or
are they rather terse? Is an XXDP manual online anywhere? I checked
bitsavers.org already - just something on DEC/X11 extant. In one of those
X11 manuals mention is made of an XXDP+ manual with an Order Number of
AC-F348?-MC (Yes, there's a "?" printed in that number. See page three of
http://bitsavers.org/pdf/dec/pdp11/XXDP/AC-F055D-MC_X11crossRef.pdf .)
2.) Pete indicates these are a basic set of XXDP (XXDP++) disks for a
microPDP-11/23. What functionality will they have on my 11/73 (or a 11/53
if I build one up from a heap of parts on hand)??
Thanks for your help on this folks.

I've got a set of DEC diagnostic floppies
(RX50) and I don't have the
decoding scheme at hand to figure out the part number and therefore
their
usage. I don't know which machine these run
on -- Micro PDP-11 or
MicroVAX.
I sort of suspect they *may* be for my uVAX II because they came with
