I have many diskettes worth of CP/M 2.2 assembler

that my media is degrading and I want to move it before it's too

The media is mostly 8" SD or DD, there are also some 5.25" HD
diskettes too.
I have the original hardware and can view the media and run the
programs.
I'm looking for suggestions on how to move it to the PC environment
I'm sure that others will give you some great suggestions on the
mechanics, but I will add my own 2 cents to this by observing that if
most of the diskettes are CPMUG or other "user groups", your effort may
well be redundant--many of the files that were distributed via BBS have
long been archived and made public (e.g. SIMTEL20).
Good luck,
