Mine came with the 14/11/95 SDL too, which would not respond to the
S39=9 and s56=2 set levels (max tx level was -15dbm) but when I loaded
the 1/11/95 hacked US SDL (yes it loaded ok for me??) and set the "S"
regs the the TX level now happily goes down to -10.8dbm, and I am
getting lots more 33k6 connects :-)


 PL> This Courier will be on-line until Monday (the 8th of 
 PL> April 96) morning if anyone wants to give it a try.

Trying now....
