   Thank you all for your advice.  In summary this was to enter

    g=c800:5

   at the debug prompt. I thought you might like to hear the salutory tale
   of the solution - operator error perhaps?

   Although I forgot to mention it in my orginal post I had heard of the
   c800:5 entry point.  However the GOTCHA that got me was the fact the in
   DEBUG

   g c800:5

   is syntactically valid, though completely useless in this context.  I
   think the guy who designed (?) DEBUG must have shared an office with the
   guy who did EDLIN.

   Put in the missing '=' sign and it's up and running.
