Load64

No need for a refund. I'd rather support your efforts even if it didn't work out for me. It clearly works for others.

I'll keep it around and maybe try a different datasette in the future.

That didn't help. Nothing loads on that tape if I do that unfortunately.

It's time to call it as unsuccessful for me. I hope everyone else has a better overall experience and this is just my problem

Edit: Just to confirm that everything should be working just fine, I did the following:

1. Loaded my copy of Excaliba that I got from eBay. It's the commercially recorded tape. It loaded and booted up fine. No issues.
2. I erased the same tape I have been using with a electric tape eraser from Realistic.
3. Using my Eiki tape recorder with the same PC, tape image, and version of Audiotap, I recorded another copy of Impossible Mission. It loaded up fine.

I can't say if it's the adapter, but it's the only thing that isn't consistently working.

Hello,

The commercial tape came in finally. I've adjusted the azimuth as best as I could tell.

The tape loads just fine. However, no novaload recorded tapes with the adapter work still.

I guess it's time to give up on making that work since I've spent way too much time trying different things .

I have a bog standard 1530, which is why I didn't expect any hardship. I'll adjust the datasette when the commercial tape arrives.

Additionally, I have a new old stock Data-Master datasette coming in that I'm going to try with your adapter just to see if it will work. For funsies.

I've got a copy of Excaliba coming my way (cheapest cassette I could find) and I'll see if that changes anything.

Worst case at this point is that I record Novaload games via my external tape deck.

Thanks for all the help!
