Jack – Check your "&" settings carefully. There's one that tells it to either lock the baud rate to what you set it at (probably 19200 for calling HST BBSes), or to change on connect to whatever the baud rate on the other end is. If the baud rates don't match, what comes through might look like garbage. Your term program is probably smart enough to change its baud rate to what you told it to dial at, but the modem may still be trying to send at the higher rate. Harry
