I have tried calling Hayes Optima v.34 and USR v.e modems that I know for 
sure.
I don't know what others I have tried, but I have tried 9 different BBSes so 
far, and only connect "properly" with one of them.
I don't know what his modem is, but I have a message to him asking.
As soon as I find out, I will let you know.
In the meantime, another problem that I have found is that often when the 
modem I am calling answers the phone, my modem does not respond to that 
modem's "mating call" and it just sits there until the connect attempt times 
out.
I tried using the Smartcom program that comes with the modem and that seems 
to work when the connecton is made.
But that will also just sit there sometimes.
S95=60 does nothing.
I still get the same messages as above.
