Hello everyone,

I am looking for sources of fax scramblers/descramblers. I was told that there are sources in Sweden, but it seems that the high-end prices are rather prohibitive for low-budget users.

This may just be a "backward" technology, considering the fact that faxmodems offer better economics, and better security, with the right software of course. However, the fax scramblers/descramblers are intended for users which have not yet fully migrated to faxmodems.

The unit price has to be lower than the combined cost of a new PC and new modem, otherwise it would defeat the purpose of saving money by trying to extend the usefulness of fax machines for secure communications.
