That has got to be worth integrating into the latest SIMH. Does that mean we can get DECnet running on TOPS-10 on SIMH? I would love to know how you actually install and set it up on TOPS-10. I believe that even with the device we can't install DECnet on TOPS-20 because I believe it needs a KL processor. I will try to find some time to get the KMC/DUP into the latest SIMH. Incidentally, I am the author of the DMC11 emulation (which was proposed by vaxorcist). It went into the PDP10 emulation for a while but was later removed when we were informed that it would have represented an impossible configuration as the DMC11 would have been in the PDP11 front end.
