  The 730 certainly had a UBA; don’t know if had a specific "FUBAR" register 
though.  But as far as a physical bar inside the chassis I've never seen nor 
heard of anything like that.  I have a 730 in the garage and it doesn't have 
any such thing.  The 730 fit into a single 10-1/2" chassis anyway, so there 
wasn't even a specific cabinet or rack dedicated to the 730.  And the 730 
chassis was basically the same box as was used for the 11/44, but with a 
somewhat different backplane.

  I suspect the "FUBAR" at Dan's high school may have been a local joke :)
