    I love Uniterm17a but...
    
    I have been experiencing a problem with Uniterm17a.  With noisy
    phone lines I get errors that abort x-modem transfers.
    
    Usually you should get a packet retry, but I'm getting sender errors
    and false EOT messages that destroy the integrity of the d/l load.
    
    Any ideas?  Should I just use Kermit or Y-modem under Uniterm17a?
    
    I'm using a Hayes compatible modem that has performed well for a year
    and still looks good. I don't think there are any switches that need
    to be changed in the modem for Uniterm so I have to believe that the
    copy of Uniterm is somehow glitched or I am doing something else wrong.
    
    Anyone else had this problem with Uniterm17a?? 
    
      Mikie?
