Now this is confusing. Maybe this related to why Bill thought I made a
typo. In the schematic I have which is the same as the one at bitsavers:
http://bitsavers.trailing-edge.com/pdf/dec/pdp11/1105/1105_RevAH_Engineering_Drawings_Jul76.pdf
E102 / A04A2, E112 / A10A2, E103 / A20A2 and E114 / A11A2.
Are there plenty of different versions of PCB and microcode??
