- SECOND POSTING - PLEASE HELP IF YOU CAN. I've been asked to decide on and purchase 4-6 low cost / high reliability (Impossible Goal) 2400 baud modems for uucp network use. So far I have read good things about Practical Peripherals 2400SA modems, and Everex Evercom 24E modems. I do know that the 24E has MNP error correction and can be gotten for less than $200.00. Does the 2400SA offer MNP? I have a local dealer who has offered me the 2400SA for $179.00. Does anyone have any information on these modems? Are the prices reasonable? Could I do better, and where? Would you recommend any other low cost 2400 baud modems? Please E-mail me, or post as soon as possible, I need to make a decision soon. Thanks a lot. Steve.

The 2400SA has been a workhorse for me... It's very compatible with the Hayes 2400 -- without the sync stuff (which is rarely used). It has no switches -- everything is in Non-volatile EAROM. It also has no completely dumb mode. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bill Pechter -- 'Not only do my employers disavow any knowledge of this message -- they don't admit knowing me.' { ? ! ?}!tsdiag!scr1!billp
