I wonder which operation he was referring to? I
personally have
successfully transplanted intact bands from donor tapes to DC600
cartridges with broken bands. It's a massive headache to get it done,
but it's possible. The last one I did (a Lisp carry tape) had to be
respooled, too. Ugh.
Remember, the Imation guy was talking about going from a flat punched-
out ring of polyurethane and stretching it to make a drive belt. I
think I can appreciate that. Belts removed from existing cartridges
have had the operation already performed on them.
