PS - I didn't run into EMACS until I was transferred to STK in CO in 1991.

PDP-7s , actually.
Was there an emacs implementation on the PDP-7? Its early history is a bit murky, but I was pretty sure it first existed on a PDP-10 as a set of macros for TECO.
I remember DEC minicomputers (7s, 8s, 10s, 11s, VAX, RSX11M, RSTS/E, RT-11) with great affection. I used to moonlight in the early 1980s with another guy from FIT to setup DEC systems at night. It was great fun. At Dictaphone, we bought two PDP-1132s . Upon delivery, one of them fell headlong off of the delivery truck. Smash. Ever seen a grown software engineer cry? Those were good days.
There was no PDP-11/32, you must mean /34 or /23. But yeah that sounds very sad indeed.
We have multiple of all of the above except for a PDP-7, up and running with every OS that you remember, at LSSM. You should visit.
