Yeah, it's not hard, you just have to keep flipping the modem between
1200 and 75 for receive and send. I even had a couple of programs
somewhere which do so. Very basic. At least one was even written in C,
from memory. They're buried deep so let me know if you want me to dig it
out.

Regards, FIM.
