Hi Andy, 

Thanks for bringing this to attention. 

Is there a method in Linux to record the Serial Port I/O from ttyAM1 
to a log file? 

Also I was assuming that if I could send the atd*99***1# command and 
get OK back, then the Serial communication is OK. But maybe after 
the data session is established the flow control is required by the 
modem.? 

Thanks.
