I recommend KLH10 as well, at least for TOPS-10 and TOPS-20, since it 
emulates a KL-10 rather than a KS-10.  As I mentioned I've not really 
messed with ITS, so not sure which it would work on.  Still SIMH is a 
quite nice platform for running TOPS-10 on.  For TOPS-20 KLH10 is 
really the only real choice.
