Hello All - bah, was just playing with my QIC drive, a
WangTek
5150ES (Using dos tar!) and halfway thru the first listing
tape stops. Turns out the rubber what drives the tape has gotten
very soft. Anybody have a box full of cheap replacements?
Oops... it appears that you didn't use the /LCV (lowest capstan
viscosity) flag ;-) to prevent the tar command from attempting to turn
the rubber capstan into a tarry substance. :-(
