wow, what format?
? The codes I'm punching should line up with a long-dead machine,
Whirlwind from MIT, so I think you'd consider them to be 7-track binary,
i.e., same size as an 8-track teletype tape with one track blank, but no
recognizable coding like ASCII.
? Can you suggest what format you'd want?
? Thanks!

Is there someone in North America that might be willing and able

out a small historical display project by punching a few short

I'm glad to try to accommodate whatever coding requirements are
easiest.
Thanks!
