Another 11/730. ( They have two, so on to Wikipedia to update them, then a request to actually SEE and Photograph these unique (slow) processor cards with their unique processors.

Now I can see from the pictures, that Yes, its a Vax ( appropriately labeled 11/730) , and yes, it has a CPU board, but not that the CPU board is for a 11/730 nor that it has AMD 2901 chips.

Yes, The AMD 2901 CPU (4-bit bit slice ), from the 11/730 has its own catalog number:
