Hello,

I quite new to Python, I am playing with GSM mode for two weak. I hvae the same error in windows nad Ubuntu.

If I tried to code some AT commands myself I can use encode() method but is there any setting so that this library could work properly?

Python3 support in this library was broken. Please try python-gsmmodem-new, which is a forked and still maintained version of this library.

@tomchy Thank You very much. Indeed python-gsmmodem-new does not have this problem, so I can close this issue.
