I don't thnk you have an ADC 1200 at least not the one sold by DAK. It
sounds like an Avatex. Anyway, I bought the ADC 1200 from DAK, and it is
100% Hayes compatable (yes, it has S-registers). It also has a feature that
will redial a number every 30 seconds if it is busy. So far I have been
happy with the modem, it has a full panel of leds, and an adjustable 
speaker. The +++ mentioned above works fine, as do all of the Hayes
commands, including auto answer.

I think it is a good buy, especially with the $25 Compuserve kit.
