Tandy 1000 drive works but no index pulse, reads random noise
#8
Got it — must have only been imagining motor noises! With the SCP, the motor only comes on if I add jumpers to both HS and HM (whatever they actually are). Once that's actually spinning, the index pulse is found and the result shows up in HxC.

Imaged a whole bunch of disks tonight with pretty good success across the ones I checked. It goes a lot quicker than I imagined, especially in Indexed mode. Had to make sure the Index Sensor was set back to Require as HxC as the "ignore" ones were not coherent even in that mode. Thanks for the jumper tips!
