...
   Having searched throughout HPs web site(s), I've
come to the conclusion that 
  anything older than a week or so won;t have any usefull information there. 
Agreed.

...
   If anyone has any switch settings for my C1525G DDS1
tape drive, it would be 
  most helpfull - I'm trying to hang it off a MicroVAX3100 model10e currently.
