I’m afraid my trusty Oric tape player has let me down , after 20 years in the attic it refuses to work . My only hope is that someone with a working tape recorder will offer to convert the tape ( if possible ) to a wav file and possibly to a tap file . I would at my own cost to send and to return the tape to any one who would take on the task . Please consider it would benefit the Oric community in that it be put on ORIC.ORG for everyone ?
PS I would send it by recorded delivery if possible which is in the UK a secure and safe way to post stuff .
If you don't find anyone nearby - I've been doing this for 25 years, but I'm in France
Although I never had major problems, it's still safer for the tape to avoid shipping it.
When I used to have more spare time, I even contacted Ebay sellers / buyers to save titles we didn't know. It worked sometimes
Steve, Dave and a few other also provided many recordings, some are still on my neverending "todo list".
Just for the record, the conversion of Zorgons Revenge demo tape also was an amazing example of international co-operation:
