    The Northeastern University Amateur Radio club recently received a 
  a donation of two TU80 tape drives from the College of Computer Science
  (also at NU) Now, our task is to learn how to connect them to our 
  vax 11/730. Can anyone tell me what, if any,  special cards we will need
  for the Vax? Will the TU80 even work with a vax 11/730?

    	Thanks in advance for your help!

    	    	Jeffrey Perry, N1ILY
