Well, by experimentation I seem to have cured my problem - for anyone
else who has the same problem -

My ttyd1 port was getting jammed up some how - I noticed after Hylafax
sent a fax, that ppp could not use the modem. Through some goofing
around
with "cu -l ttyd1" it seemed that hylafax left the modem in an awkward
state.
Issuing a ATZ reset the modem - then it was fine.
So all I did was put the ATZ in the ppp script to reset the modem prior 
to dialing - seems to work!

I also changed;
ModemSetupDTRCmd:       AT&D3           # setup so DTR drop resets modem

from;

#ModemSetupDTRCmd:      AT&D2           

my reading of my usr 56K faxmodem seems that command needs changing
