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??

I _finally_ got a copy of Uniterm 1.7a and have experienced 2 problems so far...
1) Oftentimes, as soon as the remote modem answers, Uniterm exits back to the
desktop.
2) Ymodem times out after the host has sent the filename block.
Anyone else seen these problems?
