The DF03 was a 1200 baud modem. You can find references to it in the
addmodems file in /usr/lib/uucp. I do not know about an internal version.
Can you tell us more about the board geography? Is it a Qbus card or
an ISA bus card? I have seen 2 different DEC ISA bus cards. The DEC
command set is quite different also, not at all Hayes compatible for the
DF series or the "Scholars". The 2 that I have worked with are "AT" (Hayes)
compatible.
