I purchased one out of a group of 10 people.  None of them has reported
any difficulty; I used mine to replace our hayes for DIAL-IN on our Unix
system for 2 weeks while the Hayes was out for warranty repair, and am
using the Avatex 1200 now for dial-out from my 520ST.

I recommend it highly for dial-in operation in an unattended mode, or for
dial-out when it is right along side of your 520.  Do not expect to find
the full Hayes set -- it does not support any register settings, escape to
command level using "+++", etc, which is why it will work fine for dial out
if the modem is within finger's reach for disconnecting from a line, etc.
