Next project: 11/24. Does it need memory?--Working-ish!

Found it. Board is also now working, and I'm selling one of them on 
Ebay. I don't need 4 11/24 CPUs (why do I have these?) Anyway once 
things are up I'll swap a KEF11 and a CIS chipset onto the 24 to bring 
it to full power :-)

True, and while the problem may not be the bus per se, the 
implementation of a pdp11 on Q-Bus just seems to have less of these 
annoyances. No biggie, just the usual stuff.
