Thanks Josh.I have been trying to use the modem with the smserver.java
program and it receives messages properly.The problem arised when i
have to send a message.When i queue it in the SMSSERVER_OUT database,
it tries to send it several times then eventually marks it as
failed.it also throws  pdu error. ive resulted to using a nokia phone
modem for my outgoing messages since it accepts the text format. are u
using the smsserver? if so, how did you manage to send messages from
the E160?
