Um? 74400 is 15 bits... :-)
18 bits would be 774400. But 22 bits would be 17774400. And 16 bits
would be 174400.
I would primarily expect 16 bits addresses to be used on a KDF-11, but I
could be wrong. Early revisions only supported 18 bit addressing, but
later models supported 22 bit addressing. But how that is reflected in
the micro-ODT on a KDF-11 I don't know. I don't even know if it's
actually micro-ODT, or some more primitivt console mode on that CPU.
I haven't actually worked on a KDF-11 in about 20 years. I know the
KDJ-11 better at this point. (Or the models with a physical front panel...)
I did just try moving the RLV11 boards below everything else (except
the BDV11), with the same results as before.
I feel that this is just random testing and moving stuff around, which I
doubt is very helpful.

I just tried to read 774400 from ODT, and it just gives the question

moving it next.
I wonder if it really uses 18 bit addresses in the console.

I think you had written something a while back that would test that
interrupt. Was that correct, or is there another diagnostic I can use
to test that?
The 17440 wasn't a typo, it's just my misunderstanding of how the
addressing works. I'll read the actual location later today and see
what I find!

Yup, that was one of the first things I checked - whilst realizing that
if
it wasn't, it was too late... :-)

Not that I am aware of.
