8" floppy system needed to recover old game data

[Andy Piercy]

Kieron,

I have an operational Z80 CP/M system that has 8" floppy drives which
can read both DSDD, DDSD, SSDD, SSSD disks, and I can push the data
out the serial port to a PC.

Only problemo is I'm also located in the UK Fleet in Hampshire, but
any good to you?

Ta,

Andy.
