<> I received a brochure from Chung Telecommunications (4046 Ben Lomond
Dr., Palo Alto, CA 94036  (415)858-2456) about a box which squeezes
2400 bps through a 212A modem.  It will either multiplex two 1200 bps
devices or send one 2400 bps.  The price is $695 for a one-channel
version, and it also provides automatic error detection and retransmit.
(Remember, you need on at each end of the line.)  The modem required
is "Modem type: Bell-212A, with synchronous option.  Operating mode:
full-duplex on 2-wire dial-up line."
   The gadget is called a turboMUX(tm).
   Has anybody actually seen/touched/used this critter?
