# SpectraTERM 1.30

Specific for the Byte Back MD -68 modem, this terminal program features 300 baud rate, a 32K+ buffer (allows storage of data in REM statements only), auto answer. The program lacks autodialing capability, and uploading/downloading of files is also limited to “REM” statements. it is possible to toggle the buffer, alter the communication settings, and save/load to the buffer while online. The program supports printouts to a TS 2040 printer or through an 80 column full size printer. The software cannot be loaded without the modem in place, but buffer saves CAN be read without the terminal program as these exist as regular “REM” state — ments. You must take care in not opening the buffer before a connection is established, or leave the buffer open after disconnection for tear of possible corruption of the data.

For use with the [Byte-Back MD-68](http://localhost/product/modem-4/) modem.
