subject: FOLDS - What to send?

FF>> What sort of text/graphics should I include in the fax?

 DH> Text, sufficent to occupy the line for over 1 minute, but less than 2.

Thanks.

Just did it, and received excellent for everything bar the transmission
level. Amazingly, Telstra have fixed my line less than 48 hours after I
called them! See tagline :-)

FOLDS told me the Courier is transmitting some 7.6db too loud, at -10.4db.
Is it possible to change this to the recommended -17.0db to -19.0db range?

Still, FOLDS reported an error rate of 0 bits per 100,000 bits sent, and it
received the whole page, so should I even worry about this?

Regards,
Frank
