[net.news.adm] do you have 2400 baud modems?

Would anyone who has 2400 baud modems for UUCP please drop me a note?
I'm trying to see if there are any near clusters that could become much
better connected by the addition of a few more nodes with 2400 baud
modems.

Please tell me in your note:

Can you dial out at 2400 baud?

Can you be dialed up at 2400 baud?

What brand and how many 2400 baud modems do you have?

Any additional comments - do you want to use them for netnews?
How do you like them?  Are they compatible with the appropriate
CCITT standard, etc?

By the way, there appears to be a 9600 baud dialup modem out there
from UDS for about $3000.  We're ordering two for testing - if they
work out well, they might make a big dent in the UUCP phone bills.
If anyone out there has these and is interested in talking to others
who have them, let me know.
