Pat, You can find that information by typing GO PHONES at any CIS ! prompt and looking for the nodes in your city. If it's a CIS node, it'll have a letter M after the network abreviation (in this case CS). However, I already did that for you, the Montreal 2400 baud number is MNP compatible…the 1200 baud number isn't. However, be aware that CIS doesn't support binary dumps, so you won't be able to do a direct dump of a file and depend on the MNP protocol to correct errors…you'll still have to use a protocol transfer. (Well, I shouldn't say it doesn't support binary dumps, but it can be done, but it doesn't properly terminate the file for the Amiga so the dump is worthless). Don
