Re: Need Autocall Unit for S/36

["Jeffrey M. Silberberg" <silbrbrg@xxxxxxxxxx>]

 Gordon, 

        I beleive you are looking for a UDS-801 ACU that supports the 
RS-366(??) interface on the System/36.  The unit tied up a comm line 
adapter port, and I think it had a special cable (Feature Code).

        Haven't seen one in a looooooooooooonnnnnnnngggggggg time. 

        Good Luck !!!
