PE> Aha, it's the 3 seconds in the dialog box that's doing it?  Well

I would think so. This is the normal dialog box which shows you the
dialling progress, then after 23 or 24 seconds says "Connected at...".
That display stays on the screen for ~3 secs.

PE> try doing this.  After the "_zmod_auto = 0;" line stick in

No, no problem with changing the code, I've just done that & recompiled.
I don't want to get rid of the dialog box, which shows me how many
seconds it's been dialling, and any errors like 'busy', just the delay
after it tells me it's connected. Anyway, we'll see what happens next
call.

Regards, FIM.
