Some months ago Scott (thomas43_at_aol.com <thomas43@aol.com>) sent someone his collection of 9010 tapes (see post below). He doesn't recall who took ownership of the tapes, but I'm hoping they were readable and the programs can be made available. thanks, Mike
I have a bunch of tapes here that I received with a unit I bought from an operator. There are a bunch of test routines for games like Galaga, Tempest, Battlezone and others (about 20 tapes). Does anyone here want to play with them, and post up the info for others to share? I don't have the time to mess with these.

He sent those to me. It took me awhile to get my tape deck working, but I eventually did. Unfortunately there really wasn't much on those tapes. It looks like someone plugged in a working boardset (Battlezone, Tempest, Pac-Man, etc) hit the LEARN button and then copied that info to tape. If that's something people are still interested in (which I doubt it since you can't be 100% sure those boards were working) I can share those. Some tapes were either blank or couldn't be read. There were some with actual programs on them, but I don't believe they were video game related. I can share those. I was really hoping there were some actual arcade game troubleshooting programs on the tapes, but at least it motivated me to learn how to fix the Fluke 9010a tape deck! :) Matt On Sun, 12 Jul 2009 06:20:03 -0400, Mike Salay <mjsalay@gmail.com> wrote:
