     If you have a way to boot DOS 3.3 on a 5.25" diskette, you can transfer
ADTgs. ADTgs uses the built-in IIgs serial port. You do not need any Apple
telecom II software to transfer ADTgs.

     ADTgs will allow you to transfer 5.25" .dsk disk images which contain all
kinds of software including some good telecom programs-- like Agate.

     Here is a snip from the newsgroup FAQs which tells where to get ADTgs as
well as some other telecom software:
