Looks like a 1650 to me too...  Are you sure it's a cartridge port one?

Of the stuff (modem wise) for the cartridge port there are the high-speed
RS-232 (Swiftlink, Turbo232, etc.) interfaces and that's about all I know
of...  :/  Only cart modem I have ever heard of was for the c-16, and it
wasn't produced in the u.s.
