I have managed to read in all 58+ of my TU58 tapes,

VMS updates (3.6, 3.7, 4.1, 4.2 4.4), and VMS stand alone backup
programs
(3.3, 4.0, 4.1 and 5.0). Finally, a couple of FORTRAN related tapes.
Cool. Care to share the program? I was using a DOS program to similar
effect. It was kind of tedious.
Is there someone who is maintaining an archive of TU58
tape images? If
so, I may have a few to donate... 8^)

I haven't read in any tapes lately, but I could start an archive from
my website at penguincentral. If you don't get a better offer, write
me offline and we'll see what it takes to get your stuff and my stuff
in the same place.
