[comp.os.cpm] 9-TRK Tape Interface

WANCHO@SIMTEL20.ARPA.UUCP (04/01/87)

I have a friend with a R/S Model II running P&T CP/M.  He also has
seven reels of 2400' 9-TRK 1600 BPI tape data he needs to read to
extract selected records to build a database.  He has already used a
tape-to-disk conversion service to convert one tape at a cost of
$50/hr for four hours of conversion time.  At that rate, he now
figures he should be able to invest in buying the hardware he would
need to do the conversion himself, break even now, and be ahead for
future conversions.  The question is: who still makes such hardware
for his machine?
