I find it unlikely that RV could have produced a unit that unreliable, as
I've had the pleasant experience of using two earlier 1200- baud Racal
Vadic modems, both of which gave the clearest connections I've ever seen
at any baud rate. These models predated the Hayes standard, though, even
though one was of the "intelligent" variety. It's possible that they've
gone to the usual chip sources for their Hayes- compatible models.
