That really doesnt prove much. We know that Dave line is MUCH better
than Pauls from the calls that Russ did from FNQ with a USR on BOTH ends.

In fact its starting to look like the Bulldogs zealotry to Lewin
quite a few months ago is just a reflection of the bulldogs immaculate
line, says very little useful about modem performance at all.

Corse we dont actually have a call from Russ/FNQ USR/USR to measure
Lews line with, but it wouldnt surprise me at all if it was much worse.

We DO know that YOUR line is much worse than the bulldogs and that
goes a long way towards explaining your calls to CHH which failed
with a Rockwell on CHH with the older USR code, even tho calling
from CHH when you tested heaps of modems didnt exhibit the problem.
