I think this can't be done with software: It is the modem (or a fax switch), which has to listen to the phone line and decide if the incoming call is data, fax or voice. Supra modems for example have Silent Answer: The answering machine picks up the phone, and…
You can use Mosaic to read offline by just firing up AmiTCP beforehand. No need to get the stand alone version. Michael Schumacher Formula 1 on Autopilot
"Your transfer rate could fall from 1000 to 300 cps." Not quite as bad here in London, however the best time is here early in the morning or after 23:00. Regards, Michael Schumacher Formula 1 on Autopilot
Jeff, Thanks for the clarification. When I saw the updates in the library, I only checked the Studio program on my HD with the version command, which returned 2.01. It didn't occur to me that the version number in the library file description referred to the version number of the…
Chris, It still is weird, because I am aware of AP's new non-feature. The way I wrote the message, it should have still have been formatted correctly. Anyway, since 1.80, strange things are happening all the time, but inconsistently. I wonder if it has to do with changes to the…
DJ, I couldn't agree more. This season promises to be very interesting, not only with Hill and Schumacher, but also some other serious contenders like Coulthard, Alesi, Berger and maybe even good old Nigel :). Michael Schumacher Formula 1 on Autopilot
You are confusing the term Group with Class. There is only Class 1 and 2. The reason why I am asking is that Class 1 modems usually send/receive faxes using XON/XOFF, while Class 2 use RTS/CTS handshaking. I would recommend that you reinstall GPFax after checking your modem manual regarding…
Hi Jeff, I noticed that you uploaded some upgrade patches for StudioII, could you also upload the ones prior to 2.03, or are these only obtainable by sending in the program disk (I've got 2.0)? Regards, Michael Schumacher Formula 1 on Autopilot
DJ, Just watched the race. Now that was a very ungraceful exit by Schumacher :(, but at least I don't get now snide remarks from limeys, they love loosers Michael Schumacher Formula 1 on Autopilot
Kevin, The current version is 2.347. You still didn't give much information regarding your setup. Does your modem support Class 1 or Class 2, or both. What's your serial setting? Which tooltypes are set in GPFax, what's the init string (GPFax environment), and do you have a 7wire cable? Regards,…
DJ, Just had a look at the message you are referring to. It does look dense, but I swear it had 3 or 4 paragraphs when I uploaded it. You mean Benetton's 2nd appeal was successful? That must please the Britts 🙂 Michael Schumacher Formula 1 on Autopilot
Kevin, Could you give some more information, which GPFax version you have, your modem make and model, which installation did you use (Generic or for a specific model), anything which would help to pin point the problem? Michael Schumacher Formula 1 on Autopilot

What a pity… Michael Schumacher Formula 1 on Autopilot
Mark, Ok, I'll check if the file is in the library of AmigaUser. If not, I'll upload it. Regards, Michael Schumacher Formula 1 on Autopilot
DJ, NetFS, which I mentioned in an earlier message, has both, client and server. Regards, Michael Schumacher Formula 1 on Autopilot
Mike, I've got a feeling this is the same guy who has been surfing the Net recently trying to provoke flames from Amiga users. There were quite a few very stupid and obcene postings by a guy, who called himself the Phantom, on the demon.ip.support.amiga newsgroup. He even managed to…

Sorry for giving the wrong addresses. I got them from Dale Larson's new book, which I thought would have the latest info, but then again, nothing is static on the Net. Michael Schumacher Formula 1 on Autopilot
Postscript/HP550C
Message #168571
Could anybody tell me if it is possible to get color output with the "Postlj" driver on a HP550C printer? The documentation included in Post18.LZH doesn't say it's not, but OTH it doesn't state anywhere that it can print in color. So far I have only managed to get B/W…
Mario, PPage doesn't work in colour screen mode under OS3.1, apart from that it works more or less. The screen updates are a bit more lively with 3.1… Michael Schumacher Formula 1 on Autopilot
Steve, I have the same version. Both, under OS2.04 and 3.1 it only plays up on bad Lha files, but I must say that I spent a lot of time on configuring everything, a lot was trial and error. Michael Schumacher Formula 1 on Autopilot
Steve, I'm glad, you found the culprit. Stuff like that can really drive you round the bend. Michael Schumacher Formula 1 on Autopilot
Steve, True, it does that with corrupted lha files, but apart from that it never dies on me. I launch almost all my programs from it, use it for extracting, compressing, listing and shifting of files, viewing of all kind of picture formats and so on. That's why ABCDir was…
Thomas, Try |~AT&F2|?K~~ATDT as Initialisation String in AP's Setup requester. This works fine with my setup. I think the Link Speed gadget should be set to 19200. Hope this works. Michael Schumacher Formula 1 on Autopilot
Mike, Thanks for your reply. My order for pgs3 should be in your Cmail by now. Regards, Michael Schumacher Formula 1 on Autopilot
John, Usefull to know that the Bristol node works differently, as I will be using it soon when I've moved to Wales. Michael Schumacher Formula 1 on Autopilot
Oh well, another one to add to the list. OS3.1 brought us no colour with PPage, another fax, as usual no reply… I wonder if someone ever bothered to figure out what the legal position is in cases like this. The licence agreement does not seem to leave much possibility…
Malcolm, While HyperBook may be a good program, I am getting severe indigestion whenever the name GoldDisk pops up on my screen. No matter what they are publishing for whatever platform, I've had it with them. I know that this is not fair to the authors of some good programs…
Kevin, Thank you for trying. I bought a 340 Mb Conner for L189.- plus V.A.T., which I installed yesterday together with KS 3.1 Roms. This should keep the old girl happy for a while. Michael Schumacher Formula 1 on Autopilot
Hi Kevin, Thanks for your reply. The drive I'm after is for my A3000, I want something around 250-350meg SCSI. Don't know what is better, 2?" or 3?"? Could you give me prices on Internal & External? Michael Schumacher Formula 1 on Autopilot
Hi Kevin, I've got an old version of Scribble! by Micro-Systems Software catching dust here (original disk & manual). Runs fine even on vanilla A500. Let me know if this would do for your friend. He can have it for free. Michael Schumacher Formula 1 on Autopilot
You got it in one, but "poor Joos" wasn't my fault! Michael Schumacher Formula 1 on Autopilot
Kevin, You mention that you are in the industry and can get drives at trade prices. Would it be possible to buy a drive through you for a cool price? BTW, I too live in Surrey (Epsom). Michael Schumacher Formula 1 on Autopilot
Gracia, Try using a new tape for your answering machine and clean the heads. It is possible that the unrecorded part of your message tape makes too much noise. Michael Schumacher Formula 1 on Autopilot
Ian, Thanks for telling me about the AP fix. I agree with you, the article about SCSI in JAM is very informative. I was not aware of the fact that adding a new device could be such a minefield (for the uninitiated). As soon as my finances allow it, I'll…
Hi Paul, I wuensche Dir einen guten Tag!, as far as I can remember. From a German living in England. Michael Schumacher Formula 1 on Autopilot
Many thanks! Michael Schumacher Formula 1 on Autopilot
Chris, Arm yourself with a pack of Veltins and drop in, if you like and have the time. I live just south of London, in Epsom. Let me know, I'll cmail my address to you. Michael Schumacher Formula 1 on Autopilot
#AutoPilot Help
Message #138611
Ok, I've got another one for you. Today, when I downloaded the messages from AmigaVendor, AP started looping, however snapped out of it after a short while. It is the first time it happened to me, and I don't know if it is of the same kind like you and…
Hi Ron, Thanks for taking the time to reply. Is the Superbuster available from dealers, or do I have to contact Commodore? It is really difficult to get through to them these days. Michael Schumacher Formula 1 on Autopilot
Chris, Many thanks for the info. Haven't had much contact to Germany over the past 7 years, and I started computing over here in Britain. From what I hear there is quite a lot going on in Germany in terms of hard and software development for the Amiga. It's rather…
#A3000 Upgrade
Message #138364
Advice needed! I've got an A3000/25 with softkick 37.175 and OS 37.67 As far as I know the Buster chip in my machine is one of the first series which does not support Zorro III DMA. Is it worth upgrading, or are there only a few boards around which actually…
Gracia, In case it's not in your manual, the adapter you need is part #43-107 from Radio Shack and costs $7.95. You seem to an expert on Irish food, but vodka with it? Not Tullamore Dew or something like that? Have you ever been to Ireland, or are there a…
Chris, What do you mean by "THE Michael Schumacher"? Of course I am. The one in Germany is an imposter! He was still in his Pampers when I rode my first Kawasaki. Anyway, could you do a favour for a not so fast German living in exile? If you know…
Hi Robert, So far no success with finding the transfer ink, I am going to extend my search to the Crafts forum, however you might be interested to know that there is an American company currently developing a transfer paper for inkjet printers. I faxed them for details, and as…
Dialplus
Message #137934
Hi John, As you might have noticed Aforums commented to my reply to your first message. They seem to imply that GNS Dialplus are responsible for my slow downloads. I've tried now to connect directly to CIS in London, quite an improvement over GNS,the only snag is that I live…
Gracia, GPfax is the one I'd like to avoid because of the 'blocky' output. Trapfax, so I've heard is supposed to be far superior to GPfax, I'm trying at the moment to get a demo version and exact specifications (e.g. Silent Answer and BBS support). By the way, Norwegan samlmon…
Gracia, Thanks again for your reply. I've bought two weeks ago a Supra Fax Modem V32bis, which has this Silent Answer feature. According to the manual this has to be supported by the fax software you are using. Are you aware of any reliable programs, which deliver good quality faxes…
Gracia, Thanks for your reply. Could you find out Ramco's fax number? I live in England, so fax would be the cheaper way for me to contact them. Michael Schumacher Formula 1 on AutoPilot
Hi John, ProPage can't do it, however you should consider buying Wolf Faust's Studio Printer Software, which will not only enable you to mirror your output from PPage, but also gives you full control over colours, dither patterns, colour separations and lots more. To my knowledge there is no other…
