...  There was a strangle glitch with the utility though, I think I've seen it before with the 5.25" drives, where it wouldn't RETRIEVE side 2 of a disk written by the CoCo until you need did this weird thing...
> 1) eject disk
> 2) DIR -enter-  (drive noises and DOS errors of course)
> 3) reinsert disk and RETRIEVE then it does fine
