Summary: Zenith 2400 is OK

We have used 2 Zenith 2400 external modems for a month now.  The command
set is ALMOST identical to a 2400 Hayes.  They have worked extremely well
hooked to terminals calling U.S.Robotics modems, and to a Zenith 248
running UULINK (both in and out).  Also, it has worked extremely well
on said AT-clone when used with Smartcom or CrossTalk.  Noise immunity 
is excellent.

	The salesman we bought them from said they were made for 
Zenith by BizComp, the company from whom Hayes licensed the Smart Modem
command structure in the first place.

	In the event of trouble with these modems, I would suspect
the dialer software first and formost (possible that a few spurious 
commands are being sent to the modem, that WOULD be appropriate to
a Hayes, but are NOT to the Zenith), and the cable wiring second.
