PlehnA friend of mine has acquired some 300/1200 baud modems built by Western Electric. I have been trying to help interface the modem to his personal computer. I can't even figure out where to connect the telephone line. The modem is 2 inches high by 6 wide by 11 deep. It has 5 push-push type switches on the front and a number of indicators behind the red plastic faceplate. It says "Dataphone 300/1200" on the front faceplate plus the Bell symbol. On a label on the bottom, it says "Data Set 212A, AR Options" and has a chart showing internal DIP switch settings for various options. Another label says: "4702 Data Mounting P/O Data Set 212A OR AR Type Series 1 81 MG 02" There are two 25-pin data connectors on the rear, one male and one female. I cannot see any place to connect the phone line anywhere, inside or out. If anyone could furnish the necessary interfacing information I would certainly be indebted. I am hoping that I can talk my friend into giving me one of these modems so I am especially anxious to be helpful. PLEHN%MIT-MC
