Message-ID: <7608@brl-tgr.ARPA> Date: Mon, 21-Jan-85 16:19:22 EST Article-I.D.: brl-tgr.7608 Posted: Mon Jan 21 16:19:22 1985 Date-Received: Thu, 24-Jan-85 05:27:50 EST Sender: news@brl-tgr.ARPA Organization: Ballistic Research Lab Lines: 8 Some of us using acoustic coupled Racal/Vadic 1200 Baud over commercial long distance seem to find that problem also. I believe, in my case, that it is crosstalk in the telephone systems, in that some of the trunks in my case have other R/v and Bell modems on them. The crosstalk looks like extraneous characters to the modem. The only remedy, in my case is to re-dial and attempt to get a cleaner trunk.
