I'm getting a whistling out of my DF224 modem. Evn when I hand
dial it dosen't seen to work. I just get an attached message and
then nothing. I'm using the same 15 pin cable that I'm using right
now with the DF03. Any one got any hints.

the modem...

re: 1
I call "Mr. Might Modem" himself. He never saw the problem before.
He gave me the pin outs for the modem (don't know why they are not
in the manual???). I did do something that worked. I built my own
cable. I use what I considered the bare minimum configuration and
made the assumption that I probably will never us synchronous
mode. The cable I made used pins 1-8 and pin 20 (one to one, male
to male). I used shield twisted multipair wire. The outside shield
is connected to pin 1 and the signal shields are connected to
pin 7.
One more observation. I don't remember what the part number of
the cable was, but as I was leaving this morning I decided to count
the number of pins on the modem cable I was using. There were
16! I didn't have time to further investigate what the 16th
pin was. I don't know about the Amiga, but other computer manufactures
put power (20v) on what they consider unused pins so modem that
are put on their computers don't need a power suppy.

I am having the same problem with my DF224. What pins are you using?
1 through 8 and 20? Perhaps I will snip a few pins.
