Does anyone on this list, preferably close to the Boston area, have the ability to read
TOPS-10 9 track magtapes? I have a friend with a few tapes from which he'd like to
extract the contents.
Thanks,
David

You might want to talk to Tim Shoppa, though he's in DC.

All you need is someone who can image the tapes for you.
With those you can use the following to extract the contents:
For TOPS-10 BACKUP tapes:
ftp://ftp.ultimate.com/pdp10/backup10.tar.gz
For TOPS-20 DUMPER tapes:
ftp://ftp.ultimate.com/pdp10/read20.tar.gz
TOPS-20 "archive" tapes can be handled by
ftp://ftp.ultimate.com/pdp10/r20-rutgers.tar.gz

you can checkout my website at

At the bottom of the page I list several other tape conversion sites.
One is in NY, 2 in NJ and one in Westford, MA (IBM Conversions).
