Thanks Phil (pbengtech) for taking the time to read some old data on 5.25" floppies.
Said data is now backed and accessable again.

Cheers Tim

Many thanks to 60 oldjohn for going above and beyond to produce a couple of control knobs for me. - Not only overcoming technical issues with 'the system', but also contriving to 'fluence Royal Mail into delivering a 2nd class package in under 24 hours. Genius - that's what it is, genius!

I'd like to thank everyone who helped reduce my pile of manuals down to a more manageable (!) couple of hundred.

Having collected them( and paid for many) over the years it would have been such a shame to just recycle them, especially if they will be of use to members, even for nostalgic reasons!
