- It might work. Unfortunately I can not test it since *G0 is needed in
- only very, very few cases. Within North America I have heard only of

- *G0 and then dial again.

- In another matter I get 14,400 bps connects on international links now
- quite frequently. Today to a Scout+ in Germany, a few days ago to a
- Codex in Bombay. Within the US its always 14,400 bps, today to a
- Motorola 24,000 bps modem in Boston for example on first try 14,400 bps
- V.42bis. I will add it to my list of compatible high speed modems now.
