How hard would it be to make new dec tape media?
60 year tape could use a replacement.
Ben.
DecTape is laminated, ie. it has Mylar on both sides of the
oxide. 50 years ago, we made working replacements from 3/4"
instrumentation tape, but it was NOT laminated. It had a
print-through issue where if left sitting for a few months,
it would start getting errors. I have no idea if there is
anywhere you can buy 3/4" instrumentation tape. Maybe you
can get 3/4" video tape.
