Virden) Distribution: na Organization: N8EMR's Ham BBS (HBBS), Columbus,Ohio Lines: 26 Keywords: Zenith Bizcomp It's me again. I appreciate the assistence provided so far. Let me give a bit more background into the problem. I have the Zenith external 2400 baud modem connected to an Apple II GS. I am using a modem program called Talk Is Cheap, an outstanding modem program in my mind. When I type directly to the modem, things work relatively well. The two problem sites that I call recognize my modem, my modem recognizes them, I get a connect 2400, and I can proceed with login. BUT, when in an auto-script/macro whatever you would like to call it mode of operation, and I get the connect 2400, the next character emitted to the modem causes about 5-6 garbage (like change of baud rate style) characters and a NO CONNECT message to occur. I type a AT H0 and attempt to dial again and the modem acts as if it never TRUELY disconnected the line (I hear no dial tone before the carrier is sounded) and my modem never disconnects. I have changed the S10 (time before dropping carrier) to 030 (3 seconds) and it doesnt seem to help. In fact, I typically have to power the modem off and back on again to get the dial to work. Any suggestions would be appreciated. So far I seem to have received about 3 or 4 messages about these modems, from folks who are relatively happy with them. I wonder if that is all that have been sold... -- Larry W.
