[GreenKeys] Vintage Bulletin Board Service

[Jason W6IEE]

I’ve also been interested in playing with dialup again. (Hated in back
then!) Though in these modern times, I have no dial service at all to my
house.

Has anyone kludged together any sort of FXO apparatus to some inexpensive
or free service to get dial-out ability over Internet?

I have a pile of 56K external modems that I’ve been rescuing from e-waste,
I’m going to be wanting to find them new homes later this year.

Dan, as I mentioned, some will be heading your way!

Thanks,
Jason WA6BBQ
