9-track Tapes gotta go

All, I still have an office full of magnetic tapes that I need to get rid of. If you need some, let me know. I'll box and mail to you if you are willing to pay postage. I'll put the rest on eBay and/or VCM soon if I can't give them away here, and if that doesn't do it, I'll (sadly) trash them. The tapes are reel-to-reel, mostly 10" full-size reels (~2500 feet of tape) but some smaller. Mostly 800 bits/inch, but some 1600. Some Black Watch, many other brands. All are used; the data on them is not proprietary or secret (a lot is UARS satellite data) but I don't know generally what it is or what format it's in. Most reels include the white surround clips with hooks to hang on racks. The tapes are in pretty good-appearing shape, and were stored in climate-controlled storage since new (I believe). Shipping will be from San Antonio, TX, area code 78254. Pick-ups welcome. Please respond by email here, and tell me what you want. I can't be much more specific than "soon" about when I'll start to auction or trash, so promptness would be good (but tardiness probably won't cost you much, if you are willing to prowl auction sites for them). -- - Mark 210-379-4635 ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Large Asteroids headed toward planets inhabited by beings that don't have technology adequate to stop them: Think of it as Evolution in Fast-Forward.
