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?
I have a box of tapes from Jim Willing that I need to deal with as well. There
was a GPIB version of the drive used in the 405x that I have. The service manual
goes into more detail than the service manual for the main unit. I also have a
couple of the bare drives and had intended to hook them up to the same sort of
interface that I've been using to deal with other cassette media.
