Gordon, Did you hijack someone else's thread? You should really start your own. Anyways, I have had great luck with TDM card to TDM card faxes on the same box. I think you want "echocancelwhenbridged=no" at least that made TDM faxing almost perfect for my installations. The only thing I would be concerned with are the sometimes painful IRQ issues.
