Info on 5061-7271 Data Comm for the HP-71>
I see a Data Comm module available on eBay but I can't find any manual for it online. Does anyone have a manual they can share or that I can buy? Also, does this module require a mag card to load software? I can't find any reference to it at all online.

Thanks! I didn't know the 82488A designation so it was hard to locate. Now I just need to buy a module.

Why buying a module? Just buy a MULTIMOD (with your module inside; or not, then you can upload on your own into it).
Modules are nomore needed. MULTIMOD is the tool for module use.

If you have enough RAM, you can also load the software in your HP-71B.
Alternatively, fire up Emu71, load the module and play with it.

Is the MULTIMOD still available? If so, where? I googled it but didn't find a place to order it.
