     Now, for a
question.  I could go dig this info up myself but it'd take me
 hours.  Here, I'll bet someone knows off the top of his/her head.  Are the
 pinouts for the pdp8's KL8-JA serial board compatible enough with those of
 the DL11-W, such that I might use the same cable for either?  
 Should be OK. Or at least I use an ex-PDP11 (DL11-E or DL11-W) serial 
 cable with the M7655 cards in my PDP8/e. The M7650 seems to use the same 
 cable as well. As do some other DEC serial cards (DUP11?, for example). 
My research confirms the above as well, for what it's worth.
