John,

	I passed the SEQNET bboard note along for your info, but I
would doubt that you have a noisy phone line problem if Smartcom II
doesn't exhibit the same problem over the same line.  I am not a
ProComm user and am not familiar with the default settings in that
program.  For starters you should check that you are using 8 data
bits, no parity, and 1 stop bit to communicate with BIONET.  I do know
that some BIONET users use ProComm so I hope that one of them can come
to your assistance on this.

	Despite its plain interface I have used Kermit to contact
BIONET from all regions of the country while on the road and have
rarely run into problems with it.  BIONET distributes Kermit for free
to BIONET users.

Dave
