Subject: Apple-Cat insert for BYE

It seems that Yet Another Bye insert for the Apple-Cat II modem has
bombed.  B3AC-0.INS for the BYE335 series of Bye programs has an
"Await Ring" routine that checks for carrier only.  It does not appear
to check for RING.  This may be because you need to have the Firmware
chip in the modem card -- is this true?  I have not been able to get
any Apple-Cat insert working with any of the BYE programs so far
(BYE3, also MBYE with -both- revisions of the insert file).

Are these really bugs, or is the firmware chip required -- There is
quite a demand for Apple-Cat II BYE overlays; perhaps someone with a
bit more ex- perience at assembly language that I would be willing to
contribute this over- lay, a TESTED, WORKING copy, to the MBYE/BYE
collection.

Please reply if you would be willing to write this insert, or if you
know why I am having so much trouble getting this working, or if you
know where I can get a working insert file.  There are many
RCP/M-SysOps who are anxious to get a system running, but have no BYE
insert that seems to work.  I was not able to contact Wayne Masters,
author of the Apple-Cat insert.

Thanks,
