[HECnet] Can we hook this up to a VAX or something?

[hvlems at zonnet.nl]

Interesting, that a TU56 was supported by VMS. How did that become possible? Is it because the driver for the TU58 also happened to work for the TU56, possibly assisted by some SYSGEN magic to configure UB vector and addresses?

I can't remember whether the RK05 was supported by VMS?

No, not AFAIK but the RL02 (either on an RL11 or the RB730) was.

But did it work?   There were some strange old devices that worked on VMS even though not "supported" -- the TU56 (real DECtape) comes to mind.
