  I know the TU81+ is supposed to be connected to a

 controller. But can a TU81+ be connected to the TU80 controller (only doing
 1600 then of course)? 
I thought that TU80 had a Pertec formatted interface while TU81 (plus or not)
had LESI interface, i.e., two totally different interfaces. They are both CDC
Keystone tape transports and I think it's one board inside that provides the
interface and thus differs. But if you want to try swapping CDC Keystone logic
boards, you are on your own.
