Backing up songs to floppies and naming them with only 6 characters can test our ingenuity. So as a bit of light relief from those serious postings of late, here are some that I have backed up recently - Can you guess the titles?
I'll post the answers in a few days time - if I can remember what they are

01PROCOL
026FT6IN
03TM2SAG
04SLOPJB
051000IS
06LTMETR
07ICCLER
08JSTCAL
09GDBDUG
10ITS4AM

Hi There John,
Rather than spoil it for other members, I'll email my thoughts..

Willum

Hi John,
A welcome diversion.Have sent you an E but not many answers,

Best Regards Gilbert

John ..... I faced this dilemma a number of times when using 'floppies' .... I think I got 6 of the 10, but that's not a passing grade is it?!?!

Thanks to all who took part in the file name test. The winner was Alec with 9 correct and Bill Norrie runner up with 8 correct. Unfortunately no prize money has been awarded as all cash has been placed in the KN7000 account and cannot be used for any other purpose

The song titles were:-

01PROCOL Whiter shade of Pale
026FT6IN A Thing called Love (6 ft 6in he stood on the ground etc.)
03TM2SAG Time to say Goodbye
04SLOPJB Sloop Jon B
051000IS The Night has a 1000 eyes
06LTMETR Let me Try Again
07ICCLER I can see clearly
08JSTCAL I just called to say I love you
09GDBDUG The Good, the Bad & the Ugly
10ITS4AM It's Four in the Morning.

John,
Are the numbers THAT important to you that you would give up TWO digits for? I realize it keeps tham in order, but I change the order of every set I ever play. There is no preset plan to the order of tunes.

Hi Dave,
I don't give up 2 digits. When you save a Technics File to floppy disc, there are only 6 character spaces provided for naming the file. The numbering is automatic. If you removed the numbering, then the keyboard wouldn't recognize the file. I don't suppose it will be any different with the KN7000, but hopefully the SD cards will allow long file names as does the HDSX
