I was able to get a EDD3 copy to duplicate the original but being a nibble copy still doesn't get it to where I think it should be for archiving purposes. ADTpro looked like it copied out a few of the first blocks in standard mode then fails on the the rest. FWIW http://ge.tt/2TBWHcb/v/0?c Booting it in AppleWin drops to monitor at 803? Good Bad? Mostly bad?
Problems with ADT's nibble transfer. Locks up after reading the first read. Possibly thinking? Thirty mins later and no we're locked up. Tested it out with a DOS 3.3 disk and it did the same thing only didn't wait another 30 mins.
Little rusty on the tools from the BBS days, is there a utility to read/compress nibble copies into a format that could be transferred over modem?
OK, so if you have a semi-working nibble copy, you might be able to use SST to create two images that can then be transfered to a PC via regular ADT.
re: ADT hanging though, does it work OK in 'regular' mode? Maybe Dave can comment on that aspect.
