A new doc file detailing the YAM modem program protocols is now
available from SIMTEL20:

Filename			Type	 Bytes	 CRC

Directory MICRO:<CPM.YAM>
YMODEM.DQC.1			BINARY	 24704  4837H

YAM uses the MODEM2/MODEM7 protocol for CRC and CHECKSUM and has it's
own BATCH protocol.  It also allows optionally setting the packet
length to 1k instead of the usual 128-bytes, which should improve the
throughput when using the new 2400-baud modems.

Even if you have no interest in YAM, the portion detailing the MODEM
procotol is useful.
