Hello Paul!

On 01 May 94, you said to Geoff Armstrong:

Those calls were successful, I agree. I did make a lot of calls that had no
mail to send either way, so after the FTS negot they hung up. No problem,
just as you expect.

It was the other calls that apparently didn't make it as far as your caller
log that were the problem. The modem hung up before the
eeeeeeeeeEEEEEEEEEEXXXXXXXXXXxxxxxxxxx modem locking/training tones were
recieved (ie immediately after answer, and before the modems got to even
say hello to each other).

Bbbrrrrrr Bbbbbbrrrrr ... Bbbrrrrrrr Bbbrrrrrrr  pip pip pip
pip pip pip pip 

Sea Ewes are round!
Geoff.
