Ok,

Sorry about the delay, I got busy with work and didn't get around to
working on the Sun unti tonight :)

I cleaned the heads with some isopropyl alcohol tonight, but to no avail,
I still get the dreaded 96A0 error, I'm beginning to suspect the tapes,
however it doesn't matter what tape I put in, it gives exactly the same
error, so unless all 4 SunOS tapes have had it, it may be the drive.

Further to the error codes, a tape with write protect off gives 86A0 error
:)

Thanks

Karl
