The Rhode Island Computer Museum deceived this DEC Tape Drive Tester today. It is supposed to connect to the TU10, TU20, or TU30 tape drive bus that normally connects to the tape controller. I haven't seen any documentation, or even a mention of this tester in any documentation. It looks pretty simple, so I should be able to reverse engineer it. I will try it with the TU20 tape drive on the PDP-9.
