Hello Paul!

On 10 Apr 94, Geoff Armstrong said to you:

GA> Hello Paul!

GA> Could you please look in you binkley.log and see what's happening with
GA> my packet xmission? When my system sends its outgoing packet (usually
GA> small ie less than 4k) it gets all manner of zmodem retries due to CRC
GA> errors. The larger files I get from you process without any CRC
GA> errors. So most likely it is in my ZModem send.

Just tried again with the last packet. Same thing. Many many ZModem retries.

GA> Also, sometimes after an attempted session (due to BUSY returned or
GA> something) my modems "Originate" light is out, indicating that the
GA> modem is set to "Answer" mode. Also when this happens, the modem is
GA> continuously trying to lock on, scanning up and down. I can hear the
GA> busy tone of the unsuccessful call over the top (underneath?). The
GA> modem won't then retry to dial, it just leaves the line looped until
GA> manual intervention.

This didn't happen this time. Apart from the ZModem retries, all went well.
The line wasn't busy, though, so I still don't know if all the problems are
fixed. I did make a change to the FD setup. I get it to send ATZ twice on
initialising, and before each call and after each unsuccessul call. We'll
see...

Sea Ewes are round!
Geoff.
