Hello Knut,
Hey thank you for the help. Always nice being able to tap into the mind of a
Guru on this stuff.
I'm pretty green with all of this really, but I enjoyed it when I was in
high school in the late 70's.
I always wanted to come back to the TRS-80 universe someday. Now I have the
time to dedicate to this old passion as a great hobby (the world of the
TRS-80 & BASIC to start). So I really do appreciate the help from the folks
here in the Tandy/TRS community. :-)
Well, I hope I bought the right stuff. I just bought that Hayes 1200
Smartmodem & a Bi-Directional 25 pin Male to Male RS-232 cable for it. Any
recommendations on which communication software I should use with it (& the
model 4)? I see Ira has quite a few different modem programs on his site.
I'd like to initially try and hook up to a BBS or two.
Again any recommendations or thoughts here would be greatly appreciated that
would help me accomplish this the easiest way possible.
:-)
Thanks again for your time!
-Chris
