The author of this update explains his changes in a message to Ron
Fowler:
Msg 132 is 12 line(s) on 09/08/84 from BOB SANDEL
to RON FOWLER about MODIFIED SM-13 TO STOP HANGUPS
Ron, Although the SM-13 overlay worked quite well for me with MEX10,
I started experiencing a lot of Anchor XII hangups when I implemented
MEX111. Seems like MEX111 is too fast to allow a proper disconnect of
the Anchor. I experimented and have U/L MX-SM13A (A for Anchor) which
has added 3 CALLs to DISCON before turning control back to MEX111.
Seems to works a lot better for me---let's see how others do with the
alteration. I speeded up the DISCON times to 1.2 seconds from 2.0
seconds. Still having some difficulty recogninzing a Control C when
in the auto-repeat dial mode. Currently only about 50% effective.
Thx for a powerful modem executive. Bob
