Ahhh, OK.  I pulled the board and flipped the switch UP and was using
a serial console.  I will try down and with a mono monitor.  As it
turns out, my VR260 and VR262 have gone to monitor heaven.  The 260
went pop and the 262 got all squirrly on the sync at power on, and
would not drop into sync even after several hours.  Capacitors maybe?

I have one remaining mono monitor, the VRM17.  That seems to work,
but is getting very jumpy after about 5 minutes of power on.  The
screen goes real wide, and folds back about 2 inches on the right side.
I am expecting something to go in it, soon, too.  Anyone have any
suggestions for adjustments of the horizontal width?  I saw a label
on the back with horizontal on it, so I am  assuming it is one of
the little pots reachable from the back side.

What is it with DEC monitors.....(:+{{.....

Thanks
