I remember having my first Telebit Trailblazer 9600 baud modem. Reliable 9600
baud over voice-grade POTS lines. They were very remarkable devices for their

email and USENET) to a number of local UUCP hubs. The training tones for it
were pretty crazy sounding, very unique.
IIRC the Trailblazer spoofed the UUCP 'g' protocol which resulted in
higher throughput.
I feel old.
You and me both, brother.
