[Coco] Found lots of Coco Tapes...

[Al Hartman]

That is my plan...

I just have to get a day where I feel good, and can do all the importing. It's a lot of files on these tapes. And, I have to setup a computer to use to load these tapes into. Then I want to test them in a Coco Emulator to make sure they work.

I really want to get these tapes into the archive. Nobody seems to have them, and I'd hate for them to be lost to the community. I know someone on the list has asked me for the voicepak software, so fo that alone this is a good project. The Charit tape has some additional fonts for the Lowerkit boards, and Zipster can add them to his Lowerkit clone. Plus the Charit software is good to use to design more fonts for it.

The Dragon software would be useful to those of us who have Tano Dragon 64s.

Might I suggest simply recording them to wav or mp3 files? A good program to use to record the audio is audacity. Once they are saved as wav files, those can be loaded into an emulator or a real CoCo.
