[net.micro] Signalman modem

cwc@mhuxd.UUCP (06/22/83)

The only Signalman I have (or ever hope to have) touched was a
300 baud job that sold for about $89.  Its performance was so
erratic that I went nuts trying to adapt a working communications
program to compensate for the fact that the RS232 DCE to DTE
signals bounced up & down a seemingly random number of times
when the thing was switched into data mode.  They may have gotten
their act together in the last year, but I'm always sceptical
of equipment that sells at a price considerably below average;
If one manufacturer can do it, so can the rest.

  Does anyone know anything about the Signalman Mark I direct connect
modem?  I have seen California Digital advertising it for $69 and it seems
too good to pass up.
