The disks can be represented in DMK format. The DMk format is quite
flexiable and is able to handle single density tracks. It would even
support single density sectors mixed in with double density sectors.

I would be able to use my Catweasel (a special floppy controller ISA
card) to read the disks and create DMK images of them.

I would suspect David Keil's CoCo emulator will support these disk
images.

I would also be able to modify MESS to support single density DMK
sectors. If I had an example of such a disk.
