Someone on Facebook has a reel-to-reel tape for a set of diagnostic programs for a Honeywell mainframe that they'd like to have digitized. Anybody have a working drive?

I may be able to read 800 9 track. Got sidestracked half way through doing some work on it and need to finish that. Don't currently have a baking setup if the tape needs that. Also have a 1600/6250 9 track I've used a couple times. Got a VCF tape to read so plan to get back to this reasonably soon.
