M.A.C. on Channing St. in Berkeley, CA (get the number from directory
assistance, its in the (415) area code) sells two new Avatex model 1200
baud modems.

The cheaper, < $90.00 is Hayes compatible except that it doesn't implement
the "+++" go back to command mode, so you can't make it hang up under
software control.

The other one < $130.00 is fully Hayes compatible. 

I've bought from them. They are good people. Surely your local computer
newspaper has ads in the back for cheap new modems.
