I have a DECtape written on a PDP-10 about 1974 which I would
like to convert to some more modern form, say magnetic tape or
floppy disk.  Does anyone know of a reasonable method of
conversion, maybe a service DEC or some other company offers?
This is definitely a one-shot job.  An inquiry to our local
DEC office got nothing. (Gee, what's a DECtape? Never heard
of them. That sounds really old...)

Thanks,
