Peter,

I wonder if you got a bad modem.  I have had the Zoom modem for several
years and while no where near the quality of a Bigmouth it has been
adequate.  When the group purchase happened I picked up another as a spare.
When I put that one in my PC I actually found that the sound quality
improved slightly.

Have you tried using other software with the modem?  Any chance it could be
the driver?

Mark S

:For a test, try entering this command in a DOS session
:prior to running ECS (from that session):
: SET ECS_ADPCM_REV=1
