Hey list,
I received a note today from a fellow in London who has 2 9-track tapes
that he'd like read. Brands are CDC and BASF, so media shedding should
not be a problem. Dates are '92 and '93, so likely 1600 or 6259. The
tape seal on one (the other has no seal) is IBM-style, which may be the
system that produced the tapes.
Any takers? Let me know if so, I'll put you in contact and you can take
things from there.
All the best,
--Chuck

Chuck,
I think TNMOC can read these tapes.

The Centre for Computing History in Cambridge might be able to help too.

I'm not an official volunteer there, yet, but we do have 9-track
equipment. Right now most of it is on ICL-based hardware.
