If anyone figures out how to copy a set of disks, I'm willing to

Unless there's a good guide on setting up a disk drive emulator floating
around somewhere?
There are lots of examples online of people using Gotek etc disk
emulators. I don't remember offhand if they were for the A or the B,
though.
I should be able to duplicate my disk, but we should probably figure
out what the deal is about hard vs. soft sectoring first, so as to not
be a potential waste of your time.
I got a 4145A here with test fixtures that just needs a set of disks and
a fistful of triax cables to be fully functional (pending operational
tests).
Honestly the triaxial cables will be the most difficult part there.
MIL-STD-1553 cables will work, but they're not the best choice. At
least they come up from time to time for less than hundreds of dollars
apiece.
