        Hello.  I have an Intel 9600ex modem.  I use an Apple //gs.  I have
ProLine...ok, when I use my modem, sometimes, especially on long distance
calls, the modem does not pick up a busy signal as readily.  It will go to
a no connect even though it's actually busy.  Anyone know what is wrong? 
Is there a way to boost the "NOISE" in the phone line so the modem picks up
a busy signal.  On local casll, it'll get it in about 1.5 seconds...on long
distance, about 2, and sometimes never.  Any ideas?  Thanks

Amrit
