I had my RK05 working, but now it wan't pass the MAINDECS anymore. It fails the "drive control test" at address 3277: http://svn.so-much-stuff.com/svn/trunk/pdp8/src/maindec/08/dhrkb-e-d.pdf
As I understand it all data written to the disk and is verified in the test before. The test that fails is the random read data test. All test has passed before and I have passed them with three different RK8E controller sets. Now the test fails in the same way with all of them, so I suspect the drive.
I haven't done the drive maintenance procedure yet, is that what I should start with?
Any more ideas are appreciated!
