	The INIT string for the Hayes Smartmodem is:

 AT L(n)

  Where (n) is 0,1 or 2 to control the volume, however on Smartmodems
the level is not as distiguishable as on most *clones*.  A better way
of controlling the speaker is with the M command: 

AT M(n)

  M0 - Speaker always off
  M1 - Speaker is off while recieving carrier  (usually default)
  M2 - Speaker is always on
  M3 - Speaker on only when ringing

  If you choose to shut off the speaker be sure to use X4 which will
monitor dialtone as well as return a BUSY...
