What is the difference between rmt0h, rmt0m, etc. when using a TK-50
or 8mm tape?  Is there a difference?  On other types of machines, 
the 'm' meant 'medium density' when writing 1/2" tapes.  Is it the
same on ultrix?

The DEC tech person on site setting up our new DECstation 5000's didn't
know the answer.
