Charles, you're welcome!
As an aside, I also have a list at my website giving nominal running
times and also digital audio file sizes. You might find those useful as
well.

I believe that the tape length on Scotch 206/207 on 7-inch reels was
shorter than the nominal length, due to the greater thickness, but still
allowed the "nominal" time, e.g. 30 minutes for 206 on a 7" reel at 7.5
in/s.
Cheers,
Richard
