If you are having problems with your US Robotics Password on a local
line it may be because the line is too short.  Flipping the BALANCE
switch helps to remove all these problems.

I was receiving a lot of garbage character on some lines while dialing
in to CMU from my house which is 1 mile away and has the same 1st 3
digits of the telephone number.  However some other lines seemed to work
just fine even with the balance switch off.  I have found that after
turning on the balance switch I have not received a single garbage
character in about 1 week.				Sesh Murthy
