I am in the process of looking for a 1200 baud modem for my Apple II+. I do not need anything fancy, just something that will communicate at 1200 baud. Auto-dial, etc. are not necessary. Price IS a big factor. The primary use will be for communications with a VAX and upload/download from bulletin boards. Can anyone recommend something that fits my needs? On a specific note, I have seen mail-order ads for the Anchor Volksmodem 1200 for about $150. Does anyone have any experience with this one? Please reply to my chinet or watcgl account, as I am only going to be at electro until the end of the month. --- Carlo Sgro ...![ihnp4||decvax||allegra||clyde||utcsri||utzoo]!watmath!watcgl!electrohome ...![ihnp4||decvax||allegra||clyde||utcsri||utzoo]!watmath!watcgl!electro!carlo ...!ihnp4!chinet!dagwood Computer Graphics Division Electrohome Canada Kitchener, Ontario

Jade has a 1200 baud, serial interface, direct-connect modem advertised for $179. They also have a 7-day (or is 10 or 15) money-back guarantee in case you are not satisfied with it. I think it is Hayes compatible. Considering the price and the money-back guarantee, sounds worth a try. -- Mike Eve Boeing Aerospace, Seattle ...uw-beaver!ssc-vax!ssc-bee!eve
