Hi Bruce,
Thanks for that confirmation of my hazy memory!
What I can't seem to find is any reference as to how the tape drives interact
with the DCH bus and the associated map slots. I thought maybe a later guide
might cover that?

G'day Steve -
AOS/VS OS tape drive base names are MTA, MTB, MTC, etc. and do not
directly correspond to the assembler mnemonic name(s) - don't be
confused by this difference.
The AOS/VS 'MTA'-type tape drive is described on page IV-5. These
correspond to the original DG model 4030/6020
DG generally used 28V, 0.040 Ma (nominal), fragile wire-lead
incandescent bulbs for the Nova/SuperNova/Nova2/Nova3 front panels as
well as the early Eclipses. The S/130 was DG's first LED-based front
panel and was much-appreciated by Field Service.
More followup off-list...

Brief notes...
1) DG part numbers are 005-xx-yy; 107-xx-yy numbers are circuit
board artwork numbers. Unfortunately, there is no standard
cross-reference between the two. Briefly, the part number is the
primary reference to be used because a single 107-xx-yy
