amodLinkTxCalls is a Counter with no DESCRIPTION text, but its name indicates it counts the number of outgoing (transmitted) call attempts made over this modem link. An admin can use it to gauge how often the modem is dialing out, useful for capacity planning or spotting a device stuck in a dial retry loop. For example, comparing amodLinkTxCalls against amodLinkTxCallsFailed over the same period shows what fraction of outbound calls actually succeeded.
