Hi Dave,

I was premature in saying that the Agilent 82357B had healed itself.  I 
was able to read
the calibration data from the HP3478A with two different scripts. So far 
so good.

Then I got back to thinking about doing the ohms zero calibration and 
the HP3478A was
ignoring the  front panel reset command so I unplugged the Agilent 
82357B from the computer.
This got me back to local control.  When I plugged the Agilent 82357 
back into the computer
I'm back to having the original problem.

I did a few more repetitions of unplugging and plugging in the 82357 and 
the failure
case is much more likely than the working case.  I'm trying to workout a 
pattern.
I'm thinking it might have something to do with the order I powered 
things on.

I would understand if you are ready to write this off as flaky hardware.
