Following the model followed for the 400 Box and SL Tapes projects of the Peel Mailing List the list below is the full set of reel to reel tapes from Decktician as listed on the latest version of Rocker's spreadsheet. Note that the prefix D has been added to the numbering system on the spreadsheet.

As tracks may come from different shows and spoken Peel links are not present in all cases, some detective work may be required to compile tracklistings for each reel, but it is hoped approximate dates for shows will eventually be established. Possible dates are shown below. Please help out by adding tracklistings details if known to the tape pages below.

NB further carbon dating and show date by Weatherman22 still a few unknowns in there!

After a considerable hiatus, the remaining tapes are now being digitised, but with a new numbering system.

It's not been clear why there were 10 tapes initially allocated to the "DU" series. However from the shares so far, 9 are 3-hour tapes, so perhaps these correspond. They are likely to have been a of a larger reel size, and perhaps they are what is left of the initial stage of pause-edit tapes before editing/dubbing down to smaller finalised tapes. Perhaps also, the U referred to Unedited tapes. (speculation © Weatherman22)

(From this point the remaining tapes will have their own numbering system, which should correspond to those unused numberings below)
