You don't use Terminate?🤔

Too bad there aren't any TRS-80 targetted BBS systems still online, or at least I couldn't find one even in the Telnet BBS List which seems to be the definitive list.

Hi, did you tried a fax over plain VoIP? (not T.38 special lines)

dialup dialup!!!

Nice video man keep it up!

Great video, just wondering why the 9600 bps handshake sounded like a 28800/33600 bps handshake?

Get a PABX or PBX system. They are a big pricey but worth it

The little blue haired lady in about the third scene who turns to leave, then comes walking toward the camera; I believe that's my Grandma Tretty Bullard. Sister and Mom think so too. Thank you so much for sharing. Made my day ! She's been gone since 1979, and not a day passes that I don't think about her.

Floyd Day and Golden Cox is my grandparents. The man with Golden Cox is not Floyd Day but Luther Cox, Goldens second husband. Thanks for sharing.

Wish they had taken some footage in the store; would have been neat to see how it looked inside. Fun to watch even without knowing anyone.

How Cool is this. I remember a book about my Great Great Grandfather named " The Kinta Years ". His name was Chief Greenwood McCurtain.

Thank you for sharing this. It includes my late grandmother Joyce Warren Johnson who passed in 1987 and my sweet aunt Sherry Warren Satterfield, who passed in 2013. Best of all, includes my mother, Shelia Tuley. My children loved seeing their grandmother as a seven year old. ❤❤❤❤

This is really neat

boring

I see Cat and Computer, i suscribe.

Great well made video cool pc thank you for sharing

Fun! I had exactly that model. Bought in summer 1984 along with an impact printer at Radio Shack. The dual drives and 64k memory was a big advantage over IBMs at the time. I recall using 'scripsit' to write papers where you could use a portion of t he 64k RAM as a virtual drive - it was fast compared to operation where you read data off the diskettes. I also had bought a 300 baud modem.. that proved worthless as it took so long to have the text appear on screen, at a crawl. I recall it also came with a Star-Trek game which I spent hours playing as well as some kind of 'castle siege' game. Purchased it with printer for about $2400 and recall selling at a yard sale in 1993 for $50. Good memories though and thanks fort sharing.

I run an ISP / VoIP ITSP.. things like modem and fax always suffer from a packet-switched network, mainly due to jitter (variance in latency) compared to a TDM network which establishes a virtual circuit and performs with strict timing. From my testing, issues typically arise within the last mile. The less hops you have back to your provider network the better - this is probably why some people seem to have okay luck with fax, e.g., but most don't. T.38 is really a sad band-aid - it will stuff data within udp packets, and you can specify how many duplicates to fire off (to hope to compensate for lost packets, for example). It helps, but not as much as one would hope. If I recall, most ATAs like the one you're working with in the video top out at 14.4kbps for fax - they don't support Super G3 (33.6kbps). A lower jitter buffer seems to actually work better since the conversation goes both ways, and storing more audio in a buffer actually introduces a delay. G.711 (PCMU) is a must of course.. anything with compression will ruin the acoustics. For the same reason you want echo cancellation off. ECM which is very essential for fax seems to be broken with FoIP, since most provider gateways will actually force ECM off. Even if you set it on your ATA, if I recall, the conversation with some gateway down the line ends up turning it off. If you do eFax from a VoIP provider things are typically much better, since they often have either a direct interconnection with the PSTN or a cross connect with a LEC who does. The smaller they are, the less likely this is to be true, however. If you tried FoIP over a higher-quality link like a dedicated circuit, or anything that allows QoS, like an MPLS or Carrier Ethernet with class of service, you'd have a much different experience. Actually, this is how we trunk calls back to the data center in areas where we have to lease the last mile from another provider - Carrier Ethernet with class of service. Also, ContactID protocol (used for many alarm systems) is no good over VoIP... it uses inband DTMF to signal to the far end system. While a provider can get peer gateways to configure a trunk for usage with inband DTMF, the audio always gets expunged somewhere down the line and converted to RFC 2833. I even experimented with a fixed wireless connection (cellular), calling another cellphone to see if it would have more characteristics in line with a POTS line, but no dice... audio was always expunged by the time it hit the far end. On top of that, you suffer the same issues with jitter anyway - for alarm, this is just unacceptable. It's been a while since I looked at any of this stuff, so hopefully I'm remembering everything correctly.

that usrobotics modem is awesome. if there is/was a better one produced I'd like to know what it is.

Just dialed in from my c64c at 1200bps. 😊

I have actually had pretty good luck with V34 over VoIP myself, it tends to hang on and be pretty stable for at least several minutes at a time. Long enough for my machine to connect, get the NIST time and an RSS feed before I disconnect.

used to run wildcat BBS on OS2 warp wirh 8 port digiboard

you forgot 'yell sysop' menu.😃

Oh dude I ran a Wildcat 4.x BBS for ages, then on to WIN Server! I still have my reg codes! how do you get those old programs to run on modern OS? I'm putting my BBS back together, which USR modem would you suggest? Courier or?

Thx for the share, nothing will be the same as it was then when you connected to the net. Today’s internet is dark and boring as f.

You'll still find a lot of my WcCode files out there and still running on some BBS'. I would to figure out a way to decompile some of those projects as all my source code was lost about 20 years ago.

I've got synchronet up and running...im going to be having a dial up line soon..just seeing if it's cheaper to use astrix or bite the bullet and pay 25$ a month for a real line. Hook it up with the WC 4.20 multiline...I wish they still sold it.

hook a brotha up with a copy!

On 3:44 what was that low sound ding? Was that the "no carrier" ding? I've never heard it before

56 Kbps technology...

Hi Bryan, I spent some time testing different chipsets for tolerance to jitter (yes, VOIP = jitter due to buffering and following IP, even choosing noncompressed codecs). The results are pretty interesting: the best modem who tolerates jitter the best was Cisco NM-16AM V2 in my PSTN emulator - 2811 (w/ VIC3-4FXS and E1 uplink to the famous AS5300 full of MICAs), second - was INPRO IDC 5614 (the same Rockwell/Conexant chipset), then Sportsters and ZyXels. And. Drumroll. The couriers was the worst (I have 11 models external and three internal variants w/custom firmware). I will retest someday soon one more time this setup, now with Courier Lite (basically transformer-less sportster with only one small chip inside, TI 92MHz based) manufactured in mid 2010s with 2019 software (!) bought for $25 "for parts" in perfect working conditions month ago.

Faxes work well over VOIP so we should expect most modem connections to also work. The high end 56k speeds relied on using the old POTS lines for digital signals instead of analogue tones, so the speeds up to 33.6k speed may work well with VOIP.

BLERS is block errors

Oh, I know, that 9600 and 14400 bps works over VoIP for me, 28800 maybe too

Yo dawg I heard you like internet so I put internet in your internet so you can browse the internet while you browse the internet

It's like a shark jumping another jumping shark, mid-jump!

Memories...I had one of these.

3:18 is what you came for! 😍

Me trying to find the x in the math problem

Imagine your fbi agent listening in on you, then they just hear dial-up.

I have a CF-19 Toughbook running Windows 7 Pro. i like to boot up the XP Virtual Machine and see what websites I still can connect to using internet explorer

Это хорошо

Well that brings me back to my childhood hearing that sound frankly I didn't miss it but it still made me smile

Dial-up...voice calls...using telephone lines? So it's a telephone call with extra steps and reduced audio quality

internet over internet

That's the sound of nostalgia right there.

me when brain no work
