hmm, this is the snip from the mgetty log for the modem that works.

05/23 08:50:13 yS1  send: \dATQ0V1H0[0d]
05/23 08:50:14 yS1  waiting for ``OK''
05/23 08:50:14 yS1   got: ATQ0V1H0[0d]
05/23 08:50:14 yS1    CND: ATQ0V1H0[0d][0a]OK ** found **
05/23 08:50:14 yS1  send: ATS0=0Q0&D3&C1[0d]
05/23 08:50:14 yS1  waiting for ``OK''
05/23 08:50:14 yS1   got: [0d]
05/23 08:50:14 yS1    CND: OK[0a]ATS0=0Q0&D3&C1[0d]
05/23 08:50:14 yS1    CND: ATS0=0Q0&D3&C1[0d][0a]OK ** found **

... notes below...

what timeout?  This is a dialin test.  There is no dial string for the comma.
When in minicom I instantly get the 'OK' after an AT command.
