.
I have a friend who is trying to get his PCjr with
internal modem working. He has tried PC-Talk with
no success. The modem is internal(IBM) and non-Hayes.
He has a 128k 1 disk jr.
He would like to see if there are any programs available
and where he might obtain it/them.

How about the "IBM Personal Communications Manager"?  This
is a repackaged version of the Microcom "Era2" communications
package, and is reasonably complete.  Also, MSDOS "kermit"
happens to work fine on the Jr.  He'll have to manually type the
IBM-specific commands to dial the phone number, but other than that,
it should perform well.

I have seen JrTalk which is PC-Talk configured for the Jr on some NYC
bulletin boards. Try 212-924-6598 or 718-624-9141
