[net.general] uucp to Europe ?

jgc (06/30/82)

My firm is looking into a uucp link to several of
our European divisions.  Does anyone in netland
maintain a uucp connection to anyone in Europe ? 

I would be interested in hearing from the people who talk
with the Australian branch of uucp.

I have some basic questions. How do you get around the poor
quality lines ?  How about the questions of modem
compatibility. 103 type modems are not used in Europe but
212's are.  Auto-dialers are illeagal in a few European
countries so this also has to be gotten around.

Has anyone attempted to use uucp over TELENET or any of the
other packet net.  What are international common cariers ?
