CB>Why is it that when I use Telemate 4.21, and when I try an upload using
CB>Zmodem, I always have retry errors in almost the same spot everytime?
 I know you asked this of Winfred; pardon my butting in here.
 ALMOST every time this problem occurs, it is either:
  an initialization string problem where the modem is not told to
  tell the software to stop sending,
  or
  a software configuration problem where the software is not told
  to obey those commands.
 With Telemate, be sure that XON/XOFF is off, and that RTS/CTS is
 on.
 With your modem, ensure that all software switches enabling
 hardware handshaking are properly set.  Without knowing your
 modem, what these are is not definite, but with a USR Sportster,
 &H1 controls transmit (where your problem appears to be), and
 &I0&R2 controls receive (the typical symptoms here are problems
 receiving files).
 Let us know your modem particulars, and I or someone else might be
 able to help you better initialize it with Telemate.
 BTW, with the USR, &F1, which is the generic hardware profile,
 establishes the appropriate settings.  ATZ4 resets the modem, AND
 loads the factory &F1 settings.
