My first pager attempt



-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----


OK, I bought me a pager. The company says it's standard IXO, 
even parity, 7 bits, one stop bit, and it is a numeric only pager.

I program my pagermap with an alias for me:

	raoul	555-1212

I now wish to send a message:

"sendpage -n -p raoul 1234567".

I expect this to send a numeric page to my pager. Instead, the modem
picks up, gets the voice message, waits for a while, then
hangs up. It eventually repeats until it declares the message dead, and
reports back saying the line is busy.

Is there something obvious? Or should I start posting logs?

The system is Linux RedHat 5.0 on a Pentium, HylaFAX v4.0pl2, the
pager company is PageMart, and the modem is USR 33.6 Sportster.
