I'm seeing a weird problem with my Hayes 1200 Smartmodem.

Every now and then it will half fill my terminal screen with
U's, and after it does it, the host computer doesn't respond. 
I can get it into command mode (+++) and enter   commands,
and when I put it back online, the TX and RX lights blink
when I press keys.  It does this with different computers,
so that's not the problem.  When I command it to hang up and
re-dial the computer, things work like normal.

It only seems to happen at 1200 baud when the modem has been
on for an hour or two.  Could it just be getting overheated?
It's warm, but not hot to the touch.

Anyone else had similar experiences?
