Sidenote: how hard would it be to make a paper tape reader and punch from
scratch? The idea is to have a lightweight unit for playing with my
SBC6120 and perhaps Altair reissue/clone (if and when I get one).
A reader is fairly simple matter lookup the OAE [oliver audio engineering]
reader design.
However the punch is a mechanical project. The only kitted one was the
Heath (H10 I think) punch reader and that was not very reliable or light.
