WAITS works. At least the KA10 versions. Both with and without the BBN pager. I have trouble booting some of the very earliest monitors. I am working with Bruce Baumgart to get a couple disk images up for people to play with. At the moment is it kind of complicated to prepare a disk image. The KA should be able to run Tenex if we can find a system or generate one. For the KL10, yes it will support Tops20 paging.
