This should be possible, but tape transfer via WAV files and audio tape decks
often gives cause to transfer errors. A direct connection of a C2N compatible
drive to the PC will give better results. Look on sta.c64.org for the X1531
cable and the programs that support it (especially PTAP).
Usually I recommend cbmlink and the C2N232 device for PC-CBM tranfers. The
C2N232 device is currently sold out and will be available again in one or two
months. Until then, you could build a PC64 cable, which also works well in
non-NT/2k/XP/2k3 operating systems.
