[is the line-eater bug just a myth foisted upon us by the old-timers?]

Greetings, Atarians!
Anybody out there have one of these things?  Quoting from the July 84 Antic:

"The R-verter allows you to use most modems and other RS232 devices with 
your computer without using an interface module.  The software package
includes a smart-terminal emulator and an RS232 device handler.  It 
requires no other peripherals, doesn't use a joystick port, and comes
with a built-in 3-foot cable.  It's said to be compatible with any RS232
device that accepts TTL-level inputs (most do)."

I'd like to connect my Signalman Mark I stupid modem to my 800, but I
don't have the $50 to spend on this device.  I can make my own cable,
but I need a pointer to some PD terminal software that will do this, if
such a thing exists.

Thanks.
