On February 16, 1978, Ward Christensen founded the Computerized Bulletin Board System, the first dial-up bulletin board system ever brought online, as a program to allow Christensen and other hobbyists in Chicago to exchange information. CBBS/TN is running CBBS 3.6.2, dated 09/24/83, on AltairZ80.
CBBS/NV moved to CBBS/TN in June 2023.
CBBS/TN’s dialup capability is provided by a Cisco AS5300 connected to an ISDN PRI circuit, no VoIP, making this number great for testing your modem’s connection. (down)
is it answering

one mark a dial, oldest first — green answered, red did not. 62 kept, since ; the directory calls every board every night and remembers six months of them.

their screens
no picture before login, only text: shown whole, as a caller meets it, and never cut into a tile. every screen this board has drawn for a caller before login — 1 so far, since . a board that changes its welcome art keeps every screen here; one we stop meeting on our regular calls is let go after three visits and six months. the art belongs to its sysop and its artists.
