Most (All?) unibus devices can be set anywhere in the PDP-11 IO space. This
means the last 8kbyte of the 256k Unibus space. Addresses 760000 - 777777
octal. A quick glance at the schematic shows that this is true for the
RK11-D as well. What is interesting though is that the doc mentions 8
address jumpers while according to the schematic it has 10. Jumpers W4-W13.
