Northstar Horizon

I think there was some issue with how long it took the heads to load, and how long they stayed loaded with the Horizon. And of course the sectoring was hard sectored and those are rare these days. i have a big stash somewhere but probably can't duplicate anything for quite some time for a real horizon. I think there was some site with all the horizon sig disks archived. I think the fellow who used to supply boot disks who's archive was nuked by his passing probably was a good bet at one time. Hopefully someone else can help you with the media. Look for 10 sector verbatims where you can find them. Then the problem for me would be digging out a working machine and my media at the same time. I hope to vist my horizon pile in january, and if there are some floppies there repost or email me off list and I'll look and see what works. (I live in California, and my pile of Horizons are in Missouri) Jim
