Exactly my understanding and V7 doesn't run on pdp-11/23s though it is 
runable on 11/73.

My interest if to have one of the many PDP-11 Qbus machines I have 
running a nonDEC OS such as unix.  The 11/23s would be a favored target 
as I have a few of them but, devices compatable with binary versions
are not available to me.

I'll look at the archive for the RL02 images.  IF there is anyone that can 
suggest a way to get the images on to the RL02 using RT-11 I'm interested.
I can kermit the files from the PC so that step is not a problem.

<Yup. These images were designed for emulators.

Understood, not much interest to me.  Running a PDP-11 sim with two of 
them behind me doesn't really do it for me.  Running unix on a sim under 
dos on a PC exceeds my grasp of reality. I'm the sort if I wanted unix 
on the PC I'd install *BSD for 386/486 and skip the simulation.  I think 
Bob S. and friends did some great work though.
