Much better! Yes, that was the answer. Below is the quote from the
documentation.

     channel-group channel-group-number mode {auto [non-silent] |
     desirable [non-silent] | on}
     ....
     onForces the interface to channel without PAgP. With the on
     mode, a usable EtherChannel exists only when an interface group
     in the on mode is connected to another interface group in the on
     mode.

A review of the 3500XL doc indicated that it did not know about PAgP

Thanks!
