According to the KD11-A manual (pg. 3-2) the address lights on the console
are driven directly from the CPU's Bus Address Register. So you've got an
issue there.

So it's not wedged on in the CPU. Maybe a console switch issue, then?

The console emulator doesn't directly support access to memory about 56KB (as
would be, with address bit 16 on). To look at that memory, one has to set up
the MMU and turn on mapping - there's a section in the M9312 manual which
shows how to do it.
