It's a bit late now that the Moon Lander program has been sent to the Punched Tape-supplier, , but I suppose JJ could have appended a test pattern sequence / other computer versions of the Moon-Land - maybe with a few Null's etc. between these, to cut up yourself.
- Assuming there's mainly a set-up charge, and that cost (per-inch?) of the tape isn't too much.
(Although maybe you can just get them to produce a few tapes to different programs while they're at it, if it's mainly a total order / delivery cost).
