I'd expect you could still read them sector by sector - an RX01 is standard single density format.
Regardless, you can find software to image them here: http://highgate.comm.sfu.ca/pdp8/ In particular: http://highgate.comm.sfu.ca/pdp8/software/dumprest.tar.gz (I had my own version of that sort of thing that used XMODEM protocol - I need to look at the above myself to see if I like it better). VAX PSI is software for packet switched networks (e.g. X.25). I don't have any use for that software myself.
