Any customer with a modem and computer can access the BBS. The system provides automatic
configuration support for 1200- through 19200-baud modems. Typical modem settings are 14400
baud, no parity, 8 data bits, and 1 stop bit (14400, N, 8, 1).
To access the BBS, just dial the telephone number and respond to the system prompts. During
your first session, the system asks you to register with the system operator by entering your name
and location. The system operator will set up your access account within 24 hours. At that time,
you can access the files on the BBS.
NOTE
If you encounter any difficulty accessing the high-speed modem, try the
dedicated 2400-baud modem. Use these modem settings: 2400, N, 8, 1.
