   [Advice on using tty0X devices]

   On the other hand, you can use /dev/sioX instead of /dev/tty0X. Even
   though they both refer to the same S
   RS232 line, the /dev/sioX device
   ignores the DCD line state while the /dev/tty0X device handshakes
   on it.

I've done this for now (used sioX) and will probably continue with it
for the terminal lines.  I'll probably go for using the tty0X devices
for the modems.

Thanks to all who responded.
