Well Bob I was hoping to get the ball rolling and really hoping you had a 
US Robotics Sportster modem (which is what I use, then I could have given 
you my init string).  Maybe now someone with a Hayes can help with the 
string...the ATZ does seem like it can indeed be tweaked...take a look at 
what Telix/Win uses for your modem and enter that into Qmodem...type it in 
the actual terminal window if you don't want to affect the setting stored 
in the program.  Otherwise there's only a few general things (I assume 
you're running Win3.1 and not Win95):
1) you should replace the Win3.1 COMM.DRV with something like WFXCOMM.DRV 
which allows better use of the 16550 UART.
2) make sure you are using HARDWARE flow control, not XON/XOFF.
3) make sure your COM port speed is set to higher than 14.4K
Qmodem/Win has served me admirably, although I did modify the "stock" init 
string for my modem to get a few extra CPS's...hope this gets you on the 
right track.
