[Elecraft] <Long & OT> Data protection and recovery techniques

[Fred Jensen]

And, do any of you ever check the backups to make sure they really have 
anything there?  In the olden days of reel-to-reel tapes, the number of 
backup tapes in the library that were actually blank often exceeded the 
number of valid tapes in the library.  Lots of scrambling when you 
needed that tape.
