Hi, I finally decided to buy the PR: CONNECTION for my modem interface. But, which terminal program is the best to connect with Unix? I heard that Chamelon CRT terminal (APX or ANTIC) is good to emulate sereval terminals including KERMIT AND XMODEM PROTOCOLS, is it good as it said? Also, I just hooked up a cable to my green monitor (formerly for my appl e, simple compsite input without sound). Now, I got the Atari working without a sound. It's good to play without games, but is it possible to make a device output the sound? I tried a 16k ohms with 0.4W speaker and found out Atari cannot boot up the speaker. Any suggestions? Thanks. William

Try your local Radio Shack, they should have an inexpensive kit for one. I personally use a stereo synthesizer hooked up to a stereo amplifier. You should here the difference it makes. Also, you will get a better picture on your monochrome monitor if you use the luma pin instead of the composite video pin as input to the monitor. Kevin J. Meis 303/538-4364 AT&T ISL, Denver
