  *FLAME*  Excuse me? I call about 10 local BBSs at 8N1 using Telix
3.11 and have had absolutely no side effects? I think you should
look at your hardware and all other possible answers before
assuming the software is at fault. In addition, read all the
manuals, since you might have missed something (I'm not saying you
didn't read them, but am just reminding others to do so). *FLAME
OFF*
