I avoid products manufactured by Anchor Automation. Saves me a lot of headaches (talk about horror stories... like the college that ended up with 16 Anchor Mark XII's through miracles of lowest bidder, and had to throw them away because they were useless). I've heard rumors, tho, that the 6420 300 baud modem is similiar to the HEs ][ (see below). The 6470, of course, is incompatible with anything... while the Volks 12, while Hayes compatible, has no provisions for being hung up or taken off hook except HAYES commands (which is why it's fairly useless for a BBS...). > Hes Onhook: Poke56577,56 poke56579,32 offhook: poke56577,0 poke56579,38 carrier: same as 1650. Note that I'm assuming Hes ][, and that I haven'T actually SEEN a Hesmodem -- I ripped those #s out of a popular PD terminal program. The above is from a table on page 26 of the ICE-64 BBS manual. -- Eric Lee Green uunet!nuchat!elg
