      You can transmit without a modem.

      Edit for the hater…

      I’ve got two radios behind me that can transmit without a modem. I grew up with aerial TV antennas that received signals that were transmitted without a modem. You don’t need a modem to transmit data. You need a modem to inject a digital signal onto an analog line or to get a digital signal out of an analog line. Modem literally stands for MODulator DEModulator.
