Do you know if a PC controller for an MFM drive can format an ST225  
sufficiently that RT-11 can use it? I figure it would get the high  
level format wrong but wouldn't the low level format be okay? Can't  
RT-11 handle the high level formatting? 
NO, on the PC controller.  Tried it and no success with any RQDXn version
as I have all three (and flavors of each at that).

Reminder. RQDX1 and 2 use one format and RQDX3 uses a different format.
No idea of the spcifics only that they do not interchange.
