*** REPLACE THIS LINE WITH YOUR QUESTIONABLE MODEM ***
Does anyone out there own the ADC 1200 baud modem that DAK is
selling for $169? Specifically, is this modem capable of outpulsing
the "*" symbol in the touch tone mode? Some "Hayes compatible"
modems can only outpulse digits 0-9. The "*" symbol is used to
disable Calls Waiting i.e. *70,5551234. Do you like the modem?
Any problems?
Please E-mail responses. I'll post a summary if replies warrant.
Thanks!!!

Out here around DC, C&P's Telephone's crossbar hasn't been programmed to recognize * codes yet. -dave -- David Hsu (301) 454-1433 || -8798 || -8715 "I know no-thing!" -eneevax Communications & Signal Processing Laboratory / EE Systems Staff Systems Research Center, Bldg 093 / Engineering Computer Facility The University of Maryland -~- College Park, MD 20742 ARPA: hsu@eneevax.umd.edu UUCP: [seismo,allegra,rlgvax]!umcp-cs!eneevax!hsu "Get back in the cupboard, you pantomimetic regal person..."
