     The performance of the Avatex 1200 has been quite adequate for me.  It is
not particularly noise-sensitive, and is extremely reliable.

     As for its Hayes compatibility...  All you get are a few of the AT
commands.  No S registers.  The only way to drop carrier is to drop DTR on
your RS-232 port.  Linitations, but not serious ones.
