Thank you very much for the R5 details! I presume that the other registers and the VMB.EXE that reads them are probably machine-specific, as I see all sorts of arbitrary-looking numbers stuffed into them depending on which device the ddnBOO.CMD file corresponds to. > Yes, you should be able to plug a TZ30 in to pretty much any Unix box, and > read TK50 tapes off that. Cool. I'm looking for one now. The seller who sold me the TK50 doesn't have any, and I've tried contacting another seller I found online. eBay and I are seeing other people now, but the TZ30 listings I found there look overpriced to me, anyway. I'll start new threads here and on VCF to see what I can scare out of the woodwork. -- Mark J. Blair, NF6X <n...@nf6x.net> http://www.nf6x.net/
