[comp.dcom.modems] X,Y,or Z Modem for the IBM 370???

SAB121@psuvm.psu.edu (08/23/90)

I'm looking for any way of implementing any of these beasts on an IBM370
running CMS. I REALLY NEED THIS IF POSSIBLE! Kermit is fine, but it really
tends to increase the time needed to up/down load the files. As I run an
Apple, it is not possible for me to download iwth YTerm, the only other program
I could find that would work directly with the IBM370. Help me please! I've
been told by some that it is impossible because it is a 7E1 connection, but
even a text only transmission mode would speed things up (I mean allow the two
machines to only send and recieve text with the above protocols), since most
of the stuff I d/l is in a text format anyways. I really hope this is the right
group for this kind of thing. The description said modem and communications, so
this was about the only one that was even close. Any help would be appreciated.
Please reply e-mail, as I have little time to read newsgroups, but HAVE to read
my mail! That has to fall under university approved uses... Thanks, and if I
get any people asking about this, I'll forward any info that I come up with.
Come on all you computer geniuses, fix this HUGE oversight for me PLEASE??????
