All,
I have a UK and an Oz version of the DAA (Data Access Arrangement, according
to the manual). I opened them up last night, and gazed in dismay at a
circuit board with perhaps a dozen components, including some resistors,
capacitors, small 6-pin chips, and a largish black thingy. So much for a
simple pin matching exercise.
The UK and Oz versions were similar, but by no means identical.
Sorry, chaps.
Gunther.
