RE: What do I need if I want to use an "Options" modem?

Tom,

You're right.  I had used the V5R1 version of the System Manual when I
looked up the communications specifications for the 270.  Bad move on my
part.  The #2742 would be a better choice for a system at V5R2.

Go ahead, be contentious.

Andy Nolen-Parkhouse
