Sorry if my request was unclear. I was asking for the disk data image
for an MFM disk hardware emulator.

Yes, I have seen that too. It is unsatisfying because there is
reference to a different version of ZRQCH0 from an unknown source. I
would be surprised if there were two different versions of ZRQCH0,
wouldn't it be ZRQCI0 (or ZRQCJ0 or even ZRQCH1)?. What seems to
happen is the RQDX3 identifies the emulated MFM disk as an RX33 and
doesn't give the option of entering the UIT selection.
