Maximus / Squish Fido sysop here.
Long ran on a 300 baud modem (I think it was one bit per transition!.) Upgraded to a 2400 baud Hayes smartmodem full-duplex (V22bis!) and eventually a 14.4k Zyxel running some strange proprietary protocol with asymmetric channels. If I remember correctly, it's been a long long time.
Did anyone else's sister intentionally pick up other phone lines regularly to ditch the modem transfers so she could talk on the phone?
PCBoard was too expensive for me at the time
