I also have been meaning to resurrect my 7 track drives and an 800
bpi 9 track, for the purpose of reading a couple of dozen useless tapes.

I have at least 12 drives, from 7 track up to 9 track 6250 bpi, a couple
of dilog and emulex qbus tape controllers, and two or three external
formatters (for the older drives) I have some manuals from datum, pertec,
kennedy, digi and maybe others, BUT I just don't have the time or
inclination to start putting these together.

A cooperative venture maybe?
