Data Grade Tapes Only on Kitt Peak (1Dec94)
(from KPNO, NOAO Newsletter No. 40, 1 December 1994)

Changes in the specifications of video-grade 8-mm "Exabyte" tapes have
caused significant failures in writing data on the mountain. Because these
failures are a big drain on our maintenance and technical staff, effective
1 January 1995 only data-grade tapes will be used at Kitt Peak. Data-grade
tapes--both for Exabytes and DATs--may be purchased in limited quantities
from Reception for $10.00 per tape.
