That's rather odd, that gzipping the file made it work. I don't imagine
it got much smaller after gzipping...
It does sound like some byte pattern messed things up. Are you using
software flow control in your modem? I would think things would work
even worse, if so. Can you turn off the use of the escape character on
your modem? Usually it's "+++" or something similar. Those are the
only things that leap to mind...
