What kind of drives does the Waveterm use?
What kind of disk controller?
For example:
96tpi (80 tracks per side) drives can read 48tpi (40 tracks per side)
disks, and can write them to virgin disks, but, when RE-writing them,
leave part of the old (wide) track alongside. Those RE-written dis

written by PPG users. For some reason any disk we wrote with them
wouldn’t read correctly in the machine itself UNTIL we made a new
image of that disk using Teledisk 2.15 then re-wrote it back to the

The Waveterm is a 6809-based single board computer running FLEX that was
designed to use 8” drives, then at some point they modified it slightly to use
5.2
