Anyone remember these gems? Well I’ve been getting back into building a collection of DAT tapes using the KCS and to use it for bootstrapping an 8086 toshiba laptop with procomm (or a few gwbasic programs) since its only got a 720k floppy with a proprietary controller then later releasing a few runs as an audio zine.
To do this I’ve been working on connecting a db9 serial to 3.5" audio cable to work like a null modem with the data source being KCS encoded cassettes. However with a limited supply of “New” old stock around and in the spirit of DIY, Here’s a video series on how to create one’s own cassette tapes.
Now way the old Cassette? Their way better than you remember.
Why KSC… well data on audio tapes that also can be broadcast via RF or POTS.
