Brian, The instructional tape was good. One attaches the tape drive, opens the ATL and puts the tape into the drive.
It is a lot harder to visualize how things would function from just the manuals without hands on the equipment. You did a wonderful job. Thank you for being so thorough. I would NEVER have gotten this far without your notes. Thank you.

The notes I left for you refer to pages 88-89+, and 231-235.
