(HOW'S THAT FOR A LONG PLAYING DISK........... 41 THAT WAS A PUN..

This can be either an AC type 293 load or a DC type load, or both. the number following the letter is how 294 much of a load with the standard bell in a telephone being equal to a load 295 of '1'. 296 As to the CPM system number, you already have it if you are reading this 297 The CPM system sits in behind BWMS and is accesable with a special pass word. 298 Access to the system is restricted as it is very easy to bring it down destroy 299 things, ect. As a result if you wish to use it you must be able to prove that 300 you are responsable enough to not purposly do that sort of thing, as well as 301 haveing a need to use the system. This is usally done by interview or 302 recomendation from an exsisting user. There does have to be a real need, 303 and not just a desire, since the system is very touchy as stated befor. 304 I am not trying to say that you are amoung the nasty sort, I am just stating 305 the requirements to get on (just the facts, only the facts!) I have to be 306 very carefull, as I have enough problems keeping BWMS clean without haveing 307 to wory about the CPM system too. (One easy way to find out if you quaulify 308 is if you have a pass word to Lyle's system since he is more restrictive 309 then I am this automaticlly gives you validity to access to my system, and 310 in fact the password sequence is often provided thru his system if no other 311 means is available to provide it with.) 312 Any more questions? I will be more then happy to try to answer them. 313 **************************************************************************** 314 To: Dragon Lady Fm: Cistop Mike Re: Female types not on system. 315 I agree with you that there is a great deficiency of persons of the 316 feminine gender useing these facilities. (Or at least making themselves 317 known.) Indeed, I have often wondered why this is so, since it tends to 318 cause this and the other BBS's (which do not seem to be a whole lot better 319 off in this respect) to degenerate into the wholly masculine communicative 320 structures which can get rather monotonous at times. It is very refreshing 321 to observe the writings of another which does not have this structure and 322 provides a break from the often borishness of the usual talk on this system. 323 As such I beg of you to not forsake us and leave forever barren the 324 video screens and printers of the users of this system of your marvelous 325 and wonderously communicative printed word. 326 The handle of Dragon Lady while not wholly uncommon has been used by 327 more then one, as such I know of several. However, there is always the 328 possibility that I know of you if not directly, at least indirectly in one 329 way or another. 330 The question that comes to mind is NWSFS ? 331 Ah, that I would be so lucky to be graced with such virtuosity on this 332 lowly BackWater Message System.

Thanks for your comments about the ringer equivalence. I knew 428 about the ratio of load impedances, but never have seen anything that 429 explained the A and B suffix. For instance, at work we have some 212 modems 430 that are ringer equiv 0.8A unless there is a 2565 phone attached - then 431 it is 1.4A. Obviously the load is higher (more current) with the phone 432 hooked on, but why does the letter change? 433 I'm sure I don't have any pressing need to use your CP/M system, but 434 it's nice to know what people are talking about. 435 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Analog Alan 1842 11MAY82 436 ============================== 437 HEY IS IT NECESSARY TO NOTIFY 438 THE PHONE COMPANY WHEN YOU 439 USE A MODEM WITH YOUR COMPUTER 440 ??
