board level implmentation limitations. The most common is the data
seperator is hardwired for (especially true for any board with 765/8272

So, bottom line, if I find a floppy card that appears to conform to one of
the favorable ones on that list from comp.os.cpm, stick it in a PC and use
something like 22DISK, I should be able to make a physical backup of a TRS-80
disk? Is there some other piece of software I should use? Unless Teledisk
will produce an uncompressed image, it won't help me. I can process the disk
images once I get them onto the hard drive, that's the easy part.

TeleDisk is capable of producing either a compressed or noncompressed
image, however, in each case there is a certain amount of 'header' data
prior to the actual image.
AnaDisk, on the other hand, will produce a straight, uncompressed image
without any adds or alteration. You can also select the specific
contiguous set of tracks that you want to save to file.
