[HECnet] anyone have a physical 9 track tape drive still working?

   It's my month for trying to read old media. I've been   going through my collection to try and eliminate bulky things I won't be using. I came across around 10 reel to reel mag tapes from RSX and VMS,   from my early DEC career, that I would like to see about getting copied to SIMH tape format.

   Does anyone on the list here in the US still have a working 9 track tape drive on their systems, that would be willing to convert these at a hobbyist-friendly price? I dimly recall that these tapes would be 1600 BPI.
