Kozinn, Tom Jorgenson & Charlie Strom are arranging to have MN
carry much of the new CPMUG and SIG/M software, plus a
newsletter and a CP/M-oriented CBBS.

NOTES:
1. Call-back systems are those where a computer and real people
share the same telephone line. To contact the people, just
dial & let the phone ring until you get an answer. To
contact the computer: (1) dial, (2) let the phone ring
once, (3) hang up just before the 2nd ring, & (4) re-dial.
Call back systems are noted as CB, systems not requiring
call back are noted as NCB.
2. Baud rates are shown as Bx, where x is a code indicating:
1= PMMI rates (110-710 baud) ; 2 = 300 baud only
3= Bell 212A and 300 baud ; 4 = Vadic 3451 and 300 Baud
5= Bell 212A, Vadic 3451 and 300 Baud.
Note that the 212A/Vadic 1200 baud modems may not be
compatable with yours. Most of the above systems are using
Vadic 3451 Triple modems, compatable with both Bell and
Vadic Standard. Sign on the first time at 300 baud to
determine the system capabilities. Note also that PMMI's
can sometimes be used over 300 baud with 1200 baud systems.
PMMI baud rates are: 110, 300, 450, 600, 710.
3. Alternate Long Distance servies are shown as LDx, where x is
a code indicating:
1= None 2=Sprint 3=MCI 4=ITT
Whether a program exchange system is accessible by an
a.l.d.s. (=alternative long-distance service) should be con-
sidered when planning to modem over long programs. Charges
on SPRINT, ITT/CITYCALL and MCI are 50-60% of Ma Bell's
regular long distance rates.
4. Disk capacity is shown for reference. Note that disks not
noted as HARD may be any combination of floppies, and that
hard disks are generally divided into a number of logical
disks. Check the system documentation for exact details
when logging on.
5. All times listed are local time.
6. NEW SYSOPS: When messaging Jud or Kim with information about
your system, please include the following data:
a. Your System's Name (& BBS type)
(examples: Joe Blow's RBBS, Home Town RCPM/CBBS)
b. Your System's area code and phone number.
c. Your Name.
d. Call Back/No Call Back.
e. Hours of operation.
f. Baud rates supported.
g. Alternative Long Distance Services that can call you.
(Note that you don't have to subscribe to any, just list
ones that can call your area. If you don't know, call
the local MCI, SPRINT and/or ITT offices or their 800
number and ask 'em.)
h. Your on-line storage capacity. (Total KB or MB).
i. Your location. (City, State; State, Area)
j. Special features and interests, hardware notes, etc.
It will greatly assist Jud and Kim if you can modem the
information in a format similar to those already existing in
the current listing.
