I recently inherited a Wangtek 60MB tape drive and controller for
an IBM PC.  Using the included software, I can rewind, retension,
and forward the tape but can not list tape contents.  Nor can I
read/write from/to it.  I guess the drive need service :(.

Recommendations for a good, inexpensive repair/exchange service
for this tape drive is appreciated (I don't have much $ to spend
so if it costs too much to repair, it will go into storage).

The information on the drive is as follow:
Wangtek 60MB tape drive
Model # 5099EN24
Assy  # 30032-001
Serial# 00051102
Has a big chip with this label on it = 20585 Rev A.

Thanks in advance for your help.
