You must wait longer BEFORE you CTRL+Z.

Thanks

I've been trying various delays before the first ^Z and then before doing 2

IF do it too soon get 000000CE
if do it too late get 000000CC

I'm trying some other commands after the initial ^Z
(if do frequent ^Z's and it continues to respond)

? gives the following output

and keeps responding to further ?'s forever (ie still responsive)

but if do 2 (or 1)
it blocks with 000000CC
again

I'll see if any other T level commands are working

^Z with motor disconnected
Have to wait a bit before doing ^A
if too soon -- Error 100A DETSEC 00007001
after 20 seconds or so -- firmware info

ie seems to need the 20 seconds to stabilize
just keep running ^A till it shows as stable

can then /2
Z worked, and rest of procedure worked

Disk recovered ! :D
