[comp.os.vms] TK50 tapes again

UHAC010@vaxb.rhbnc.ac.UK (06/23/88)

Following on from my previous warning about TK50 bad tape batches, here is 
a message I received from the operator at uk.ac.afrc.arcc:

     In Ref to TK52 (For use in TK70 DRIVES)
     We have had some trouble with TK52 (Same as with TK50).
     We have been in Touch with DEC and they sent out an engineer
     who said we had some suspect tapes from a bad batch.
     On the back of the tapes there are two numbers.Join the together
     and if they tally with the ones below you have a bad tape.

     9274***5*     9274***0*   9280***09*    9280***10*


     * = Any Number

     Hope this is of some use.
