Speaking at DEFCON 17
Posted by kc on Jul 20th, 2009
I’ll be speaking again at DEFCON this year, this time about the c. 1964 Livermore Data Systems modem that I have. So come out if you want to see it (and me) in person and watch a live demo.
I’ve got some interesting things lined up, including some demos showing the versatility of the ancient Bell 103 modulation system used by the modem.
Cheers!

I just watched your Defcon talk on old modems, which was very good. You mentioned a quote during the talk, “RS232 is more a rumor than a standard”. I did a quick search (http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=rs232+is+more+a+%22rumor+than+a+standard) and found this result that might be of interest: http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/lrig-discussion/message/2235
