	I'm running 4.3 BSD on my VAX 11/750. It has one tape drive
attached to it. Recently I got hold of another tape drive and tried
to connect it to my machine without knowing that the driver I have
which is ts - TS-11 magtape interface supports only one transport per
controller. The controller that I have is a DU132 DILOG Card which can
support up to four drives.
	What I'm interested to know is if there is any driver available
that supports more than one tape drive that I can use or if anyone has
written their own for that purpose. Please reply by email because news
gets here by tape which are usually two weeks delayed. 
	Thanks.
