I am looking for a modem (used or new) for an Atari 800. Any
recommendations for a suitable unit (prefer 1200 baud), which
would be used to access the Free-Net, GEnie, as well as a DEC
Micro-VAX Computer would be appreciated.
By the way, is there a market for the ATARI 1027 printer, and
cassete tape drive?
I think that I will need an interface to accomodate the modem.
Any comments/help would be appreciated.
Thanx!

Our best suggestion would be
the Atari SX212 Hayes compatible
modem. It's got the right kind of
price tag at under $100. The SX212
has been tested with the most
popular software for Atari and
works quite well. It also is a
direct connect modem through the
SIO or you can connect it as a
serial device. I am currently
using The 212 and give it my
highest rating. The modem is
300/1200 baud. Thanks for your
question. I hope we have been of
some help.
