I fully agree with Bob. I tried to make a v2.2 for RL02 but it behaves the
same as the DU-version of the v2.2. So it is NOT the driver. I jumped to
conclusions here.

I don't have a real Unibus system with a UDA50 and a drive up and running.
Another option is to hook up a RQDXn with the 11/03. But that is not done
in a short time frame either. So testing on real hardware is not possible
right now.
