I'm in the other boat. I need to transfer VHS tapes to digital and then burn that to DVD or blu-ray. I have about 6 VHS tapes I used to record the events as they transpired on 9/11. Pretty crazy day. Watching them again there was so much misinformation and speculation about bombs being on the Brooklyn bridge, etc. And that's the way the news goes.
I also have a DVD of CNN coverage of that day that has three audio tracks. One is for the CNN audio, one is for Fire/EMS radio traffic synced to the timeline of events, and another audio track is of police radio traffic synced to the timeline as events transpired. A user at Radioreference.com many years ago created it and uploaded it to TPB where I downloaded it. Pretty surreal hearing fire/EMS traffic. That radio traffic is on the net free to download, but I can't remember the website now.
I also need to dub a mini cassette tape of John Glen that went back into space at like age 70 I think it was in circa '97. I recorded it off my scanner. When the space shuttle went up the Ham repeater here would often simulcast NASA audio and that's how I got the space shuttle coms including interviews with television stations asking John Glenn all kinds of questions. I bought another mini recorder on eBay (asinine price) so I could record the audio to CD. I was going to write John Glen and send him a copy, but would you believe he passed just a week before I was going to send it to him?
I so need to contact Chuck Yeager and get his signature. I have several of famous people. Many of Kirsten Dunst in fact. Well, I only had a crush on her back then. LOL When I saw this snap in Maxim back in circa '99, I fell in love.
