It seems that Yet Another Bye insert for the Apple-Cat II modem has bombed. B3AC-0.INS for the BYE335 series of Bye programs has an "Await Ring" routine that checks for carrier only. It does not appear to check for RING. This may be because you need to have the Firmware chip in the modem card -- is this true? I have not been able to get any Apple-Cat insert working with any of the BYE programs so far (BYE3, also MBYE with -both- revisions of the insert file). Are these really bugs, or is the firmware chip required -- There is quite a demand for Apple-Cat II BYE overlays; perhaps someone with a bit more ex- perience at assembly language that I would be willing to contribute this over- lay, a TESTED, WORKING copy, to the MBYE/BYE collection. Please reply if you would be willing to write this insert, or if you know why I am having so much trouble getting this working, or if you know where I can get a working insert file. There are many RCP/M-SysOps who are anxious to get a system running, but have no BYE insert that seems to work. I was not able to contact Wayne Masters, author of the Apple-Cat insert.
