I've seen this before. It *is* to do with an invalid modem init string. You 
basically have to tell your modem to hang up if DTR is toggled. AT&F doesn't do 
this on all modems. 

The default Trumpet script toggles DTR (set dtr off,sleep 1,set dtr on) - hence 
the problem.

I don't believe that this is the problem that he's experiencing. Thanks anyway.
