All three of the side A dumps are missing programs 12-18, they only have “<BINARY>” placeholders. These seem to be the programs which actually drive the async probe, so it seems unlikely that it would operate without them. Perhaps binary data can’t be transferred via the serial port? I’ll be very annoyed if that’s the case, since working tape drives are rare and I don’t think anybody has figured out how to repair them.
