COMPUSERVE users have full access to CP-MIG. (Fees required to join CompuServe.) ====== NOTES: 1. Call-back systems are those where a computer and real people share the same telephone line. To contact the people, just dial & let the phone ring until you get an answer. To contact the computer: (1) dial, (2) let the phone ring once, (3) hang up just before the 2nd ring, & (4) re-dial. 2. Note that the 212A/Vadic 1200 baud modems may not be compatable with yours. Some of the above systems are using Vadic 3451 Triple modems, compatable with both Bell and Vadic Standard. Sign on the first time at 300 baud to determine the system capabilities. Note also that PMMI's can sometimes be used over 300 baud with 1200 baud systems. PMMI baud rates are: 110, 300, 450, 600, 710 and are indicated above as "1-7". 3. Use of an alternative long-distance service should be considered when planning to modem over long programs. Charges on ITT Longer Distance, MCI, Sprint and Western Union are 50-60% of AT & T's regular long distance rates. These services and many others are available in many areas of the country and many of them can now call anywhere in the U.S. and will work fine at 300 and 1200 baud most of the time... (Note, however, that you might not be able to dial a system in Alaska, Hawaii or Canada depending on the service you get and sometimes you may have trouble connecting at 1200 baud.) 4. Total on-line disk capacity is shown for reference. Check the system documentation for exact details when logging on. 5. All times listed are local time, please observe operating hours for systems with scheduled availability. -------
