[comp.dcom.telecom] TDD Emulation by a Mac

I don't believe I brought this up here before.

I'm looking into TDD emulation by a Mac.  I've got a couple of leads
on making a Mac do Baudot, maybe even at 45.45 baud, but I do need to
provide a modem.  I have a few options here.  I have a couple of old
Pennywhistle 103 modems that as I recall should be suitable for
conversion.  Does anyone have the documentation for these?  I haven't
located whatever I might have.  A reference to the original Popular
Electronics article would be useful, but there was a more complete
package available, that I had at one time, that would be more useful.

Also, references to old construction articles for 300 baud modems,
preferably using the XR2206 and XR2211, preferably known good are
desirable.  I have the EXAR app notes.  Comments on their accuracy are
welcome.

And of course, any other information you have about such things above
the basics would be much appreciated.

I've references the previous articles on TDD's that came across here,
and they were most useful.

Thanks, and 73,

Bell" articles from 73 Magazine.  df
