Paul's major problem with the USR Courier that he borrowed was that it
wasn't Rockwell based, therefore it didn't behave exactly as a Rockwell
based modem did.

Some of his downlinks use pre-historic modems too which seemed to disagree
with the Courier.

I use a Courier here (with a Sportster as a backup).  I have no complaints
regarding their performance at all.
