I'm using a Supra zi internal modem (2400 baud) in my A3000, and my FidoNet boss just aquired a HST dual standard - the new model that does V.32 at 14.400 baud. At times, I connect fine to his BinkleyTerm 2.40 using TrapDoor 1.50. On other days, I get lots of errors, falling back to his Opus, Drats at the Yohoo session, and hordes of ZedZap transmission errors. Calling up directly with JRComm reveals LOTS of false characters being created, my own commands to his BBS practically drowning in the garbage - my Boss was chocked, when he saw this! I have heard that the USR modems are quite strict about having the correct baud rate, and it appears to me that this migth be the cause of the problem, that is, the Supra may be slightly off it's specs. Anyone out there with experience with the Supra zi and the _new_ USR DS modem? Can my Supra be adjusted? -Henrik ______________________________________________________________________________ | Henrik Clausen, Graffiti Data | If the Doors of Perception where cleansed, | | ...{pyramid|rutgers}!cbmvax! | Man would see Reality as it is - Infinite. | \______cbmehq!adspdk!hclausen___|_________________________________W.

When the HST was first upped to 14.4kbps there was alot of garbage probs with some low-end 2400bps modems, but that was fixed quite some time ago. Is your friend sure that the HST/DS he has a "fresh" one? I'd suggest a call to USR cust. svc. for assistence. -jack-
