Historical Notes

Appears to have had a previous repair attempt. The bottom panel was upside down. Inside, ICs near the DB25 connector had 88, 88, and 89 written in marker, indicating IC placement. Further investigation required.

Configuring RS232 for 9600,N,8,1 and sending ATD1234 takes the modem off-hook. There is a slight audible dial tone. The modem then hangs up, and SD illuminates briefly, but no data is returned to the terminal.
