Re: [vcf-midatlantic] Tape archiving/Univac. Was Applesauce

There was some discussion on using head from IBM 3480/3490? to read 7 tracks. Couldn't find what I remembered online and not cheap to acquire. I did recently pick up a 7 track head but its in bad shape so not sure if it is usable.

Could you use single/2 track heads offset physically then shift the bits? - Ethan
