And F with Telix is flow control, not 'correcting'

You will obviously get it showing if the modems are retrying
between themselves due to errors, but you will also get it
when the rate at which data goes into the modem from your
computer is faster than it can pump it up the phone line too.

BL> but it's the first time I've seen it at 2400.

Maybe you set the serial speed low to get 2400
or something, so it doesnt need to flow control.

Depends on what serial speed you are using.
