Dear Treggers,

Can anyone answer some or all of the following questions relating to the
approval of a PC fax-plus-data modem card in France and Italy:

1. Where can we obtain an English-language version of the B11-23A standard,
which we understand to differ from the French portion of NET4?

2. Can anyone recommend a good test lab for accredited testing of non-voice
analog equipment, that can also assist with the type approval procedure. Noting
that there is a tendency in France to stick to the French language for
correspondence with the outside world, and for much official documentation to be
available only in French, I would prefer a lab with staff who have a reasonable
command of the English language. We are able to communicate to a small extent in
French but will find it far easier not to do so!

3. Do any specific additional facsimile machine standards apply to a fax modem
card installed in a PC. If so, which is the current Standard? I believe M41-10A
is supposed to apply, but I do not know if it has been officially adopted yet.
Is the specific standard (if any) for facsimile machines available in English?

4. I learned a year or two ago that the Italians have adopted NET4 but with
nearly 200 amendments to the Italian portion. Does anyone have a document
describing the differences? Is there a simplified TBR21-like Standard accepted
in Italy?

Thanks in advance for any information which will be gratefully received.

Best regards and season's greetings to you all,

David Drori
