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 .
