Pinpoint 1.0: Dialing Long Distance W/Out Equal Access

Certain communication systems (not Bell, therefore a very minor market share) do not tolerate a "1" preceeding a long distance call. This is typically the case where Equal Access has not yet been supported in the state.
Resolution:

The user can patch Pinpoint to bypass the "1" from being generated. This patch will vary in release 1.1. The patch below is only applicable to version 1.0.

The user should startup the Pinpoint installation disk and select Basic from the menu.

Then type: (Version 1.0 only)

BLOAD PINPOINT.SYSTEM,TSYS,A$2000
POKE 19550,32
BSAVE PINPOINT.SYSTEM,TSYS,A$2000,l15104

The user should then Re-Install Pinpoint on his AppleWorks.
