What I mentioned is one or several PDP-11 products, available for RSTS and I believe RSX.
There definitely is an "RJ2780 emulator" -- the official name may not be quite
that. And I think there was also a 3271 emulator, though I'm not sure if that existed
on RSTS.
I have no idea what these things do, since 2780 is something I've never used. Some
sort of remote job entry station? Anyway, it is the only RSTS software that uses a KG11.
DECnet doesn't because on RSTS DECnet only supported devices with hardware CRC: DMC
and friends and later Ethernet. I did an unsupported software DDCMP, but that does CRC in
software (8 bits at a time, the classic table driven fast software implementation). That
probably outruns a KG11 and in any case I never had access to that hardware.

I wanted to make sure I wasn't getting lost; are you referring to the PDP-11 software
that forms part of the Galaxy IBM workstation product? It's called DN60/DN65 and also
does 3780 and HASP. Is this what you're referring to?

To unsubscribe send an email to hecnet-leave(a)lists.dfupdate.se Correct, I was not aware it's possible to use
it. The only software I have seen that uses the KG11 is 2780 emulation.
I am very interested in getting 2780 emulation for a PDP-11.
Paul, or anyone else, do you know where I can get it?
Cheers
