Index Number: 14178 +---------------------------------------------------+ ! I think I might be able to help with the ! ! Novosibirsk connection. As it happens, quite ! ! apart from the Chatback Project (for children ! ! with special needs in the UK) I also help out ! ! with the IBM USSR Education Project -- which ! ! is how I got to install modems in those ! ! Moscow Schools, for the Blind and another for ! ! Deaf Children. ! ! ! ! I can find a 2400 modem with MNP5 and the ! ! ones we already use in Moscow won't synch if ! ! we try them above 1200. Maybe the phone ! ! engineers in Academgorodok keep their ! ! strowger uniselectors cleaner than the Moscow ! ! chaps - or maybe they have a digital ! ! exchange. ! ! ! ! I'll write direct to Frank Topping on this, ! ! and will also try to reach the Novosibirsk ! ! BBS by using FidoNet crashmail. ! ! ! !
