That did the trick, thanks a lot!  I guess this just goes to show what
happens when you don't upgrade the version of SIMH you're using in over 4
years.  I looked through the PDP-11 document last night, and it looks like
there are some interesting changes in there.  I've already modified my
configuration to more closely match my main hardware system.

I would guess not since my configuration file for running RT-11 didn't
include anything to do with terminals.
