<br>
I have hardcopy ODS-1 and ODS-2 documentation. But it's not
necessary for the current work; I've identified the tapes by other
means. I'm sure Al will chime in if he doesn't have a copy.<br>
<br>
No need for further research; thanks.<br>

Right. I forgot DECtapes are block addressable.

<div>Does anyone need any RSX Files-11 on-disk format
documentation? I have a paper copy of Andy Goldstein's 1979
Files-11 documentation. I imagine Al does too. I could try to
find out what the RSX manuals say about the initialization
parameters used for a DECtape. It is quote likely they don't
make DECtape a special case, but use the same parameters for any
small capacity disk (like a floppy).<br>
