My most reliable 9-track drive is on an RSX system. What's the best
way to make a raw tape image under RSX, anybody know?
If you have a recent version of RSX, then I'd use VCP and copy to a
virtual tape.
The TPC program from DECUS is also usable, although make sure to use the
right switches to do "nibble" copying, as otherwise you risk the same
thing Tim Shoppa got...

That is fantastic news! It would be great if you can read them ok.
Thanks!

I have located 9-track install tapes of BP2 v2.7 and PDP-11 C v1.2 in
my tape library. They are not original tapes; the labels are
hand-written (not by me) so I don't know their status. I will attempt
to recover them in the coming days.
