Has anybody used the HP-48 with a modem?  The 48 controls the Transmit
Data line but apparently leaves the Ready To Send and Data Terminal
Ready lines unchanged.  And it seems the modem expects Ready To Send and
Data Terminal Ready to be asserted -- and their polarity is different
from that for Transmit Data, which makes me think asserting RTS and DTR
can't be done just with a couple of jumpers.  Are there any solutions?
