In BYTE (May, '86) a bulletin board sponsored by ATARI was announced.
There are four different lines:
1-408-745-5308
5970
2642
4758
The BBS has 9 different special interest groups (SIGS):
1. General
2. XE
3. User Groups
4. Dealers
5. Service Centers
6. Developers
7. ST Art
8. ST Computer
9. SYSOPS
Set your modem to no parity, 1 stop bit. I managed to log in with my
1200 baud modem. I believe 300 baud is supported also. When I stumbled
around the BBS it looked like there was a lot of interesting software to
download. Files could be downloaded in ascii, xmodem, and some other
format. One can log onto the service for a period of twenty minutes.
I tried to download some programs, without success. I could download
text files with no problem, but programs got screwed up somehow.
I have the PC Intercom program (an early version). This program allows one
to download files in ascii, raw, modem7 (whatever that is), and
PC Intercom modes. I tried ascii and raw without success.
Would someone who has been successful downloading programs please let
me know how it is done? I'm completely stumped.
Thanks in advance,
