Tim Lindner has shown how to patch Basic so that DSKI$ can be used to
read single density sectors:

This may at least allow you to extract the information from the disk.
Making an image using the data would likely be more complicated
(maybe needing to edit a DMK file by hand in a hex editor).

Next question: Do any of the emulators support single density tracks
in a DMK file?
