Hi Andy, 
Thanks for your reply. 

Is there a way in Linux to log all communication from ttyAM1 to a 
file?

I will look at the CTS/RTS lines with a breakout box. I know for 
sure ttyAM1 does not have these lines, and there is an AT command in 
the modem to turn flow control off. But my question is this, if the 
CTS/RTS was the culprit how come I can see my Chat get executed? So 
if I can send the atd*99****1# command and see OK back, can't I 
assume that at least CTS/RTS is ok?
