- 1 REM This BASIC program lets you experiment with different dialing configurations -
- 2 REM to see which will work best with Mail Call. Later, configure MC.
- 3 REM Modems need 1 - 3 'strings' to Initialize, Dial and Hang up. (Initialize
- 4 REM isn't needed on all modems). Experiment by changing these 3 strings ::
- 5 REM ModInit$, ModDial$, and ModHangUp$ (Find these on Lines 15-17)
- 6 REM << SEE LINES 35-45 ::: QuickBASIC or BASIC >>
- 7 REM You'll be asked: "Which Com port?" Answer 1, 2, 3 or 4. BE CAREFUL
- 8 REM You'll be asked: "Dial which Phone #?" Be sure to enter 7 digits.
