My first tech job was with Anderson Jacobson (the company owned by the guy who invented the Acoustic Coupler) as sales tech support selling the 1200bps version of the Acoustic Coupler (only company that had one), and the very first 4800bps modem to the Government. the 4800pbs modem was the size of a lunchbox and cost nearly as much as an FR-S in pairs (had to buy them in pairs).
