I'm experimenting with my PiDP-11; I think I may have my modem set up properly to accept incoming calls, but with only one phone line I'm unable to test it. If anyone with a modem is willing to help me test, send me a message off-list and I'll give you my phone number & some login details.

I'd be less surprised by folks having modems (which seem like the kind of thing that gets tossed into a box and forgotten about for a few decades until eventually uncovered by a bout of decluttering) and more surprised by people having suitable phone lines to use them.

You should live in rural Scotland Sir.

Broadband is NEX in places - for example where I live.  512K download (max) more normally 380K!  Forget FTTC or FTTP - I have CTTM - tandard old-fashioned Copper to the Modem.

I still need to use a 19.2K modem when the going gets tough.

If you want to try an AA modem number I can send you it - but it is Scottish (UK) based.

If you contact me off-list I can try tomorrow.
