Do we have anyone who can read these tapes? Maybe Al at CHM?

For some handy clarification - some of the tapes I saw
seemed to be
operating system tapes for the MAX 32 computer.
Labeled things like "MAX 32 O/S & SUPPORT PART 2 OF 2" and "MAX 32 GLS
-C
COMPILER"
1600 BPI, 9 track.
Also has MODCOMP copyrights, leading to this line of machines:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modcomp
So likely the Modcomp Classic. Copyright dates on the labeling indicated
1981. So it would have been the latest and greatest OS for this system at
the time.
So this would have been the OS, according to that wiki article,
controlling space shuttle launch complex. Also tangentially related
(Modcomp IV, their first 32 bit computer) to the OS running PAVE PAWS
initially.
