Had a similar problem once before with a handheld OVER deviating.
Keep turning the Audio DOWN untill you get no response, then up 'till 
you do. Less is better!

Could also be the baudrate out due to computer clock drifting. I think 
AGWPE has a correction for this????

Are you using the compressed posit format? Look at the compatibilty 
setting in UI-View. Can't remember where... It's a while since I used 
Windows.
