Randy,

	Don't know if you got any feed back or not, (Didn't see any replies), but
I have been using taper. It is a small, graphical (non-X) tape program. It
does compression and I have been getting around 1.5-2.0 compression with it. 

	Don't know if your tape drive is listed, but I am sure it is as taper will
use it as it has everything else.

	Hope this helps....
