How about the telebit 19.2K modems. I think the price of these is ~$1000 now and if you are truly talking about large amounts of data you will burn up correspondingly large amounts of money using a slow (2400 bps) modem. -- Paul Fons fons@vmd.cso.uiuc.edu (internet) Coordinated Science Laboratory fons@uiucvmd (bitnet) University of Illinois 1101 W.
