Rich,

I'm not quite sure what you're concluding here, but we routinely fax 
hylafax->asterisk->hylafax and hylafax->asterisk->PSTN in a variety of 
analog and digital configurations, with and without channel banks at speeds 
up to 33,600.

There's no reason Lee's outline:

T1 --> TE405P(1) --> Asterisk --> TE405P(2) --> Patton 2977 --> HylaFAX

won't work perfectly well. Granted the Patton 2997 is limited to 14,400 
maximum, but with other T1 cards such as Eicon Diva Server and Brooktrout 
TR1034 there's no problem negotiating and sustaining V.34 speeds 
(14,400 ->33,600).

Forgive me if I musinderstood your post, and wield your clue bat gently! ;-)

-Darren
