Yes, please don't scratch the tape before recovering the contents.

Subject: Itch before scratching tape
I was cleaning the head on one of my 9-track drives and used a tape that
I've
had around for while to check my work. It's
labeled VAX-11 FORTRAN
FORT046.A and seems to be backup tape for VAX FORTRAN 4.0. Total
length is only about 750KB.
Anyone interested in the contents before I scratch the tape?
