Henk, I'm confused by your slot 
arrangement, but maybe my 11/05 is 
different than yours.

My module utilization is as follows, and 
is an 8k backplane (the 16k backplane is 
also different):

slot 9 A-F : M7260
slot 8 A-F : M7261
slot 7 A-F : G110
Slot 6 A-F :G231
Slot 5 AB : M930   C-F : H214
Slot 4 AB : blank    C-F G727 in D4.
Slot 3 AB : M930   C-F G727 in D3
Slot 2 AB: KM11 Maint  C-F G727 in D2
Slot 1 AB: DF11 Comm  C-F G727 in D1
