I am considering taking an IBM PC/XT with IBM monitor, Apple
Imagewriter, and Hayes Smartmodem 1200 to Israel.  As far as
the PC is concerned, I know that IBM makes a 220V power supply.
Questions:

1) Can the 110V supply be run at 50 Hz (i.e., on transformer output)?
2) Can the 110V power supply be converted (by moving a jumper, etc.))
to 220V?

The monitor will apparently tolerate 50 Hz (according to the label on the back)
so I suppose a small transformer will be all right.

3) Anybody know anything about modems in this regard?
