Assuming people are still interested I'm working on other, lesser issues
now that the little thing works.
First thought: The interconnections between the CPU board and the IO
board/memory boards are weird. Basically it's a plate, insulator, board,
very odd spacer that provides

It seems to have two extra CSR registers in addition to the CSR, and read
buffer.
I have a collection of British magazine CDs and DVDs from the mid-1995ish to
2013ish. They contain tools, programs, etc. I tried 5 and they mounted under
Win10 so they should work on old win releases: XP,7,8?
Would anyone be interested in acquiring these? Talk to me and we can work
out how.
Is "QC OK" the brand name? :-)

Some of their premium stuff was designed by Pat Pending.

Hello Classicquers,
I have some vintage DEC equipment (terminals and small systems) that I
need to clean up.
I'm looking for advice on how to clean the plastic bits.
Specifically, I want to know if anyone has a good solution to preserve
labels that are attached to such plastic bits while

?? The -11/34 doesn't have 'real' ODT (like the one in the LSI-11's,
KDF11's, KDJ11's), which is in microcode).
The M9301 and M9312 bootstrap ROM boars contain a console emulator, but it's
in macrocode.

My _guess_ is probably, since on other KDF11 CPU's, ODT works with no
memory, but I

I don't recall. I think so but it's possible it won't. ODT

Or was it really just a calculator? The mode list in the ad kinda
suggests it wasn't programmable so the human operator may have been
required to be the program and the rest of the "system".
