The TAP terminal that we use (if at all) seems to have a limit of 80
character messages. I'm not sure if this is affected by the line
breaks that happen on the pagers' displays where there are spaces in
the messages or not. What I do see is that this particular TAP
terminal (Arch in Buffalo, NY, USA) accepts, without error, longer
pages (incidentally, over a V.22bis connection or slower, with error
correction and compression where possible), but only the first 80
characters are seen on the pager. However...if one uses Arch's email
gateway (<TenDigitPagerNumber>@epage.arch.com), much longer messages
may appear on the pager, up to 200 or so characters. So, you might
want to consider whether it is possible and acceptable to use an email
route instead for your paging.
