I'm not sure about that.. I've been trying to find any documentation I can online
about it to understand more about how it works. I got it for $40 in non-working condition
-- turned out it does work. But detailed info seems to be sparse.

I picked up a HAL DS-3100 ASR terminal. My understanding is these are
RTTY
devices intended for teletype/radio use. It is ASCII
compatible and
in
fact
I can select ASCII and baud rates from a menu. It has
a 25 pin male
'MODEM'
port on the back. I can't find it now but
somewhere I read it
complied
with
an RS-232 standard. I tried hooking it up to my PC
with a null modem
cable,
but couldn't get either to produce anything on
their screens.
Anyway, just a shot in the dark in case any of you remember these things.
I'm not really into HAM stuff, but it's a cool little terminal and I
was hoping it could be used/adapted to other tasks.

You have rules out that it is not a current loop terminal?
