  &N2 does that and I put it in the default init. And then I set the
PORT to 2400 too.

  Yes... I suggested a timeout in the comms program initially.

 BL> Get it in your head, Paul: there is nothing wrong at *my* end.

 PE> This is news to me? I've just had a thought, maybe I can set

  God knows why...

 PE> Then there's you, who's too cantankerous to stick with a test.

  I'm happy to do whatever you ask, as long as you don't try to fix
faults in my Sportster that don't exist.

  You asked me to use 2400 *with* EC and I did... so you tell me I
DIDN'T and then accuse me of being cantankerpous. It's your dopey
fucking modem not able to recognise my MNP request! It works okay
with the PCUG.

  But if you want me to try some other dopey idea I'll do it. I'll
even tolerate you telling me I'm doing it wrong. But...

 BL> Get it in your head, Paul: there is nothing wrong at *my* end.
