Speaking of storage media, can anyone tell me whether
reel-to-reel should be put in special storage cases? Most of our tapes are
currently in the boxes the tape comes in. We are planning a digitizing
project and I am trying to calculate cost. Any assistance would be
helpful.

Have lurked for a while on the list. Recent comments about 78 storage in zip-loc bags prompts me to ask the following: Can cd's, in their little jewel boxes, be safely stored in metal boxes? I've been fotunate to be exposed in my lifetime to almost all the recording media. Having accumulated a treasure of audio tapes over the last thirty years, has always made me allergic to magnets and metal boxes. I presume CD's are plastic and the coating to be aluminum. Comments appreciated. Thanks. Nancy and Larry Hall, Members: National Radio Club, American Radio Relay League Â?You see, wire telegraph is a kind of a very, very long cat.
