I've been using my lone RL02 with my QBus systems, I'd love to be able
to use it with my 11/34 as well. (If anyone has a spare RL02 *drive*
I'd be interested as well...) I have various DEC stuff for trade, drop
me a line if you have one going spare.
Thanks!

The cable "kit" came with a stand-alone PSU. This works fine.

The main problems stem from the fact that these computers output anything
but broadcast-standard video. In some cases it was because they were built
to a price and it was 'what can we get away with'
