Any decent modem would have CTS and RTS - not CS and RS...  Whups (I forgot

BTW usually, it's usually TD for Transmit Data, isn't it?  But who cares :)

I like DTR better...

Oh...  DSR could be used too...  But MR is better (in this case :)

 SA>       CS - Clear to Send



Like I said, should be RTS and CTS - I'm very fussy, aren't I? 



 SA>      SYN - Sync Mode
