I have resolved my fax send/receive problems.  I erased the RPM, got the
latest HylaFax beta source distribution and compiled it on my system.  My
faxsend is now 339436 bytes and lives in a different directory than the place
I found it previously.

Once I had installed the source distribution I could send a fax but got errors
at the end of the first page.  The remote end would just terminate the call.
There have been quite a few messages in past months about this problem. So, I
replaced my USR Sportster X2 modem with an old Twincom 14.4 DF (Rockwell
chips) I had on the shelf. Once I had it installed  my multi-page fax would
send without error.

I have been using two phone lines, one for fax and another for internet
connection.  This allowed me to swap the fax modem without damage to my
internet connection.
