Trying to add ethernet to my 11/83 (BA23). Anyone
have this cab kit lying about? This would be the mounting
plate with cable-to-card.
Have enough DEC stuff here, might be able to work a trade.
thanks ............. nick oliviero

Nick,
I'm a little confused. Do you just need the bulkhead connector
plus its cable? If so, and if you know if it's the same as the
DEUNA unit, I can spare one off of one of the 11/44s.

New subject: TU56 DECtape on Q-bus machine possible?
I apologize in advance for the quite possibly stupid question, but...
Is there any way to run a TU56 DECtape drive on a Q-bus system like a
PDP-11/73?

Sure. Get a Qunivertor.
Problem is most Qunivertors run in a straight translation mode, and don't do
22 bit DMA mapping. In addition, the old Dectape driver would probably need
to be hacked to support the 22 bit DMA (yes the TU56 did DMA. Wow.)
Question: Is it possible to take the Unibus map from an 11/84 and use it as
a super-cool Qunivertor? I'm thinking run Q bus devices on the left of the map,
then run Unibus devices on the right. Or does the 11/84 card interface to the
memory using the PMI interface, and would be unable to snoop along with true Q
bus cards?
