The overhead on this is considerable.  Estimate
$800-$1200 monthly for a 4800 baud synchronous leased
line to the PDN switching node and $200-$900 per month
to rent an 8 port PAD for a host connection.  I understand
Tymnet has a dial-out option which permits access to
arbitrary dialup hosts, so perhaps this would be
your best bet.  Telenet has PC pursuit but carefully
limits access to selected US area codes, both
for incoming and outgoing dial-modem asynch. connections.
