   On the subject of recording info onto an audio tape, has anyone
tried using a modem to recored onto a cassette? My "original Hayes" had
some pretty odd commands, designed for use in radioteletype and such,
that should make it quite easy to do this. (Alas, my newer modem
has twice the speed but 1/100 the nifty options. "Hayes compatible",
my foot. Did you know a Hayes has special commands for sending
Morse code?) 
    On the other hand, modems are designed for the comparitively
narrow bandwidth of a phone line, so it should be possible to get
higher data rates on a VCR tape, even without all the fancy 0.0001
degree phase encoding ...
