We are running 6.03A on the 1070 at Living Computer Museum.  I typed in
VMSER.MAC from a printout of the 6.03A fiche (since it was nowhere to be
found in the wild).  The picture of Paul Allen, Robert Michaels, and me
in front of the KI on my Twitter page (Alderson_at_LCM) is from the long
night of debugging that followed.

I'm happy to send you a copy.

Have you asked Thom Van Vleck over at multicians.org?

                                                                Rich

P.S. It later turned out that we had it on an uncatalogued mag tape in the
     PGA collection.  Not a wasted effort, because I know way more than I
     ever thought I'd want to about KI/KL paging.
