GA> Well, I've got my new modem. Zoom 28.8 V.FC. It cost AUD$350 landed

GA> Of course, I won't be connecting it to the PSTN.

GA> P.S. Just as a trial, you understand, I did connect to TML and

GA> {at} 14.4?

Yeah, thats fine.

GA> I have my fossil set to 38400 and FD set to that also.

19200 would be enough. Depending on what you are doing about uploading
your PKTs. If you are uploading them uncompressed, 38400 is better.
But you can look at it the other way too, if 38400 always works, no harm
in using it.

GA> That is the fastest FD 1.01 will allow. I am in eager anticipation of
GA> finding another 28.8 modem to connect to!

There is one mentioned in the Aust Modem echo.
