I have another paper tape...this time, it's 7-channel.


I dumped it and found that it has very, very little data on it.

Here's some of the first of the tape.

The tape is dated 22 October 1958.

Any ideas what this could have been used for?

The 8th channel is set since I read this on an 8-channel reader.

Thanks,
