[comp.dcom.modems] Help with MDT Communication query

lance@wnss (Lance Spangler ) (04/04/91)

I hope this is the correct group to post this request to.  Excuse me 
if it is not.  

I am seeking information regarding Mobile Data Terminals, the sort 
used in Taxis, EMS units, Police cars and the like.  Specifically, 
those manufactured my Motorola.  

What is necessary to take the output of a receiver (analog) and 
convert it to input (digital) which can then be routed to a computer. 
I realize a modem is necessary, but I was hoping someone could provide 
the specifics; either a model number for the piece of equipment necessary, 
or simply the "in's and out's" to do what I've described.  

I don't receive this group on my machine, so e-mail replies 
would be appreciated.  In advance, thank you for your assistance.
