Here is the last version of my modem survey. The current issue is TV interference. Does your modem destroy Dallas? If so let me know and I'll buy the same. I have received no additional responses since last Wed. I suppose this is it. This shop is officially closed; thanks to all who sent responses; it's been a pleasure doing business with you; send all further correspondence to dev/null. The modems surveyed are 1200 baud jobs that **send break**. For this reason the Anchor Automation 1200 baud is not counted. C.T. Kelley Dept. of Math. N.C. State U.
