We've got a Tektronix 4051 with the optional Data Comms Interface and tons
of tape cartridges. As the belts in the Scotch/3M DC300 tapes are worn out
or torn I need to copy the contents 1:1 to other media. But how?
The simplest would be to write a simple BASIC program that will read in
each tape file and send it over V.24 (and back again for new media).
I'm looking for a solution that will work with all file types (e.g.
SECRET program files). It would be nice if there was a way to program the
4051 in machine language in order to have raw access to the files and its
headers.
