   Okay, I changed the UART code to simply restore:   
      
    DisableInterrupts;   
    Port[$21] := OldPort21; {- Restore PIC status-}   
    Port[$20] := $C7; {- IRQ0 1. priority-}   
    EnableInterrupts;   
      
   This allowed me to terminate the answering test app, as soon as the next app   
   started it then dropped carrier. So this raises the question of, if I am doing   
   this correctly - does the next app (BBS or DOOR) need to set the DTR on? (I   
   think that is the line dropping me - rebuilding whie writing this).
