If anyone is interested I can scan and post the 1976 edition of the NAB standard to tape cartridge systems. Dale H.

R: RE: Looking for AS/400

by supervinx＠libero.it

Yeah... the feeling of a real machine is different... AS/400s aren't retrocomputing cult machines so, waiting a bit, it's not hard to grab one at a decent price...

I got a pile of these from a guy who worked at the ABC (Australia), mostly studio-link failure apology announcements and a few calibration tapes. The content is usually very interesting on these old cartridges. It'd be a shame if the radio station just threw them out! Alexis.

ModemDoctor and Hank Volpe

by cctalk＠fahimi.net

I was wondering if anyone on the list may have contact info for Mr. Volpe the author of ModemDoctor. I attempted to send in the registration fee for his service based on the address on his website. The letter was returned "not deliverable". The site does get occasional updates so he is still around and apparently still accepting orders. Thanks -Ali

I now know exactly what my future plans are... But I have a "random" question for those here. I know some of the QBUS (and UNIBUS) SCSI controllers can act both as an MSCP and TMSCP controller. (CMD CQD-220A/TM for one example.) And I know that several of the PDP-11 operating systems install from tape, and can install >from TMSCP tape (hello RSTS/E). What I'd like to know is: Is there anything out there that can emulate a SCSI tape device on a CF card/SD card/USB stick/what-have-you? Best regards, Christian -- Christian M.
