Right, the hardware only has 18 bits of 'buffer address' (in both UNIBUS and
QBUS versions). But one can still plug one into a QBUS system with more than
256KB, and use it - you just can't use memory above 256KB for transfers
to/from the RX02, since it cannot physically create those addresses.

If sounds from Jerry's description as if SIMH refuses to emulate an RX02 if
the emulated system is configured with more than 256KB - which would be a
bug, if so.
