Hi,
has this found a new home? If not, Is it Pertec-compatible?
I live on the Peninsula and I have a pickup truck. I'll find it a hom if the
alternative is landfill.
thanks

I bought this giant GCR tape drive on eBay five years ago,

hoping to be able to use it to extract analog signals from 6250 BPI
tapes to feed into my decoding program.

I failed to figure out how to get the right signals out, and
eventually abandoned the project. I now need the space it takes, so
I'm offering it for free before consigning it to the landfill. It's
big (20" x 24" x 30" on the wheeled stand I built) and heavy (160
lbs) so I won't ship it. Pickup only, on the San Francisco peninsula.
