Hitachi FDD-412A 8 inch floppy drive

With some of these old drives, "analog" really meant analog, requiring external circuitry to convert actual flux transitions.  With standard PC floppy drives, that is done internally by the drive electronics and what you get out on the READ DATA line is a digital pulse that represents the duration between flux transitions.

So, if the description of the signal is correct you would have to connect whatever card that is connected to drive to SCP's floppy port - not the drive itself.
