PDP-8 File list for system_source/LINC

LAP6 format tapes
LINCtapes from The Computer Museum @ System Source.
These are tapes for the original LINC computer.

Block numbers on this page are in decimal.

AJH-tape-1 and AJH-tape-2 only have one check word instead of the normal 3
checkwords the other LINC tapes have. The documentation says the 3 check
words were to ensure the reverse block mark wouldn't be overwritten. These
tapes don't have LAP6 index. They do have some text source code.
In the text I saw dates from 1963 to Janunary 1965.
Tape 2 block 70 has read error. The forward block number is wrong and
checksum doesn't match. Looking at analog waveform it doesn't look like read
error.
