Ah, a volunteer.  I sent a message to Bob Camp.  He recently changed jobs
and became very busy.  He admirably rescued the Sheetz tapes, but now
he's willing to hand off the archiving to someone else.

Duping paper tapes?  Because I'm more computer-oriented than ham-oriented, 
I regard the more important task as converting the old tapes to 
computer-readable data files so they can be archived, cloned and shared.

As I understand it, we're talking about fourteen cubic feet of tapes.
