I need help using kermit 2.1 on a old C64 with the Volks 6480 modem. The modem does not go on line when in connect mode. How do I dial out and connect with this modem. Thanks terry NK9Z

You can make the 6480 "emulate" a 1660, somewhat, with the following POKE statements: POKE 56590,65:POKE 56588,47:REM for 300 baud operation POKE 56590,65:POKE 56588,63:REM for 1200 bps operation However, I seem to recall that Kermit has no facilities for specific modem line control. That means that you cannot have Kermit bring the 6480 on-line. I believe the same problem exists with Kermit and the 1660. (maybe somebody could possibly install a HOOK TOGGLE option to this otherwise splendid program?) -- jgreco@csd4.milw.wisc.edu Joe Greco at FidoNet 1:154/200 USnail: 9905 W Montana Ave PunterNet Node 30 or 31 West Allis, WI 53227-3329 "These aren't anybody's opinions."
