Hum? The BA123 takes plain ordinary Qbus cards, unless I totally

that the 11/53 came with those.
You're right - it is a BA213. The BA123 was the "World Box" and the 213
is the "Skunk Box" (aka S-Box). The 123 held RDxx drives and the 213 held RAxx
drives. My memory is getting a little dyslexic apparently. Sorry.
And yes, the 11/53 (KDJ11-SD) came with S-Box handles. See the pictures.
BTW, the Golden Retriever is not a DEC product :)
