         Bill, I have returned the modems to Askey, and they "generously"
         replaced them with the 1428VQE (33.6K). The models originally
         referred to above apparently were rebadged "Hayes", according to
         Askey.

         IMHO, the Dynalink replacements are worse than the E288MX, the
         Switch Mode regulator within the 1428VQE is so bad that any Radio
         within a 2 metre radius cannot be listened to.

         I have a pair of Netcomm M34Fs' that have a data throughput on
         average 600 to 800 cps (at 28k) better than a pair of Dynalinks
         operating at 31k, over the same lines, (using Askey suggested init
         strings).

         It also appears they haven't fixed the (X3-X4) dial recognition
         problems. Damn it, I should have known better and purchased more
         M34Fs. :-( . Comments?

         TTYL. Peter H.
