Sort of. You will need to put an inverter in the timing track path (I put it in the cable). Discussion from when I originally worked on this. http://groups.google.com/group/alt.sys.pdp8/browse_thread/thread/64889d6346… I was able to read some tapes but on the todo list is to build a better reader since many of the tapes had too many errors. http://www.pdp8online.com/images/ I can dig up the code I wrote if your interested but it will need some work since it depended on the special interface board I made for the pdp-8 I have online. Much of the work I did on the PC. I can also give you the code the web site uses to display the tape contents.
