My first modem was actually this bad boy https://collection.sciencemuseumgroup.org.uk/objects/co8355735/magic-modem-for-the-bbc-b-computer-modem

It was modified by my uncle to work on the commodore aniga (basically a switch on the back to just force modem on/off, so you dialled the number on the phone flipped the switch and hung up phone).
