I would have to go look at it.  All I did was take the d1 descriptor as it
comes on the original distribution disk and used modpatch to set tracks to 80
(from 35) and sides to 2 (from 1), and I changed the step rate from 3 to 0 or 0
to 3, whatever sets it to 6mS.  I didn't try to change the density. 
Unfortunately I don't recall how I got my normal /d1 descriptor. I may have
taken the supplied d1_80d.dd or I may have modpatched the supplied d1_40d.dd. 
I'd check my boot disk revision notes except that I cannot access that disk
anymore.  I'll have to post my findings later.  I no longer have use of my Slot
Pak III which means no RS-232 pak which means I'm reduced to the DC Modem Pak
and its built-in term pgm.  I used that last time I was on.  Now I'm once again
using someone else's Macintosh so I will get an 80-column display and ANSI for
the BBS I haven't been able to call for a long time.
