The thing is, I haven't used much of it - I was told that you want to use a special punch that won't dull as fast as a punch designed for paper, and I primarily use a PC04 on my -8/L which wants fan-fold paper tape (which I have a few boxes of) The only reason I'd have to use mylar tape is probably a heavily-used program that I wanted to read on an ASR-33 (like the bin loader or something) I have to admit that a 300cps optical reader has spoiled me. :-) -ethan -- Ethan Dicks, A-130-S Current South Pole Weather at 05-Mar-2004 02:29 Z South Pole Station PSC 468 Box 400 Temp -46.9 F (-43.8 C) Windchill -109.1 F (-78.40 C) APO AP 96598 Wind 18.8 kts Grid 015 Barometer 677.1 mb (10735. ft) Ethan.Dicks(a)amanda.spole.gov http://penguincentral.com/penguincentral.html
