  Must beg to differ with both of you.  Some of the better V.32
  modems will hold a connection where the Trailblazer just goes
  !click.  

  The real world-class V.32's (Phillips, Codex 2264/6,) don't
  use the Rockwell chips.  Their companies are also
  characterized by sound engineering knowledge of the telco
  facilities...other than out of a book.

  SOME V.32's using the Rockwell work o.k,  a lot depends on the
  analog interface, which separates the men from the boys.
