Supercard

Supercard by Jim Drew and sold through Utilities Unlimited.
This would copy disk that couldn’t be copied before, or that need a parameter/crack installed on., This was hardware and software combination.

Supercard5

The hardware was a small card that you installed into your 1541 drive like this early version I bought it as soon as I read about it in 1987 or 88:

Track Master

Track Master would display the 1541 drive head track and half track positions. This would help you to identify essential tracks, bad tracks and load sequences. You electronically bypass write protection tabs. BUT I can not find any more information about Track Master. How does it work, how does it install? etc..

Top Secret Stuff

Top Secret Stuff was a set of tool for your Commodore 64.There was two releases Top Secret Stuff ONE and Top Secret Stuff TWO.
I feel the first one had more interesting programs on it like the Disk Doctor, EA Copier, Track repair, 1/2 track reader and formattor.
Was there a Top secret Stuff THREE?
