School Boy Error!
I contacted the BeebMaster guy, but his 1000 was in storage, he did pass a link for the modem 2000 manual however.
So i read that, and well by golly don't i feel foolish!
Old modem!
A step away from an acoustic coupler type modem - old!
So how to get it to work? Well you need your phone attached to the modem, because you need to manually dial the number. Wait to connect, flip the switch to bring the modem online and replace the phone handset. Bingo - data transfer.
No need for rom dumps - it will be interesting to see how it copes with a few of the other BBS formats out there. But as it stands, it is working and i am happy.
Wouldn't have happened - at least as quickly, without you guys.
Cheers
I will post my wee youtube video when it uploads.
