Hey! Zmodem might be better; in fact it IS better but….in my experience y-modem has proven to be faster. It apparently has less overhead. I still use z-modem exclusively when it is available. Z is more robust with noise on the line and has a resume feature that I have used usccessfully more than once when it really saved me a buck or two. Sorry to pick that nit but somebody was bound to. I think your recommendation is still right. Goin' AP …..Mark Sterling
