It looks like I'll be acquiring a Fujitsu 9-track drive along with a
PC based controller card and the whole PC so I'm probably set with PC
interfaced 9-track drives.  Now I just need to get one working with a
q-bus controller, either SCSI or Pertec.

For now I should keep the 9914 that is working, and the other one
currently isn't working.  It won't successfully mount a tape.
Shipping these things is pretty expensive too.  I think it was
somewhere around $100 when I had one of them shipped to me.
