There are still a bunch of CNet boards out there.. the uIEC/SD that Paulie
was talking about works great, I had mine partitioned to 12 partitions and
ran my Image 1.2 board on it for well over a year..

I run an Amiga board it's a CNet board, wn3.duckdns.org:6400 there are a
bunch around that run CNet although we are all in Emulation with the
exception of a few who run real hardware. As for the displaying properly when
calling, what term program are you using?> I used to use JRComm and Terminus
and had no issues at all.. One of these days I will Greaseweasel the disks
and put them on one of my emulated systems to call out with.. Most of the
time Amiga terms that do not display properly is because of the font being
used.. Same goes for the 128, a lot of folks have been saying that the ANSI
of Desterm doesn't look right, if you use the correct font it will...
