I do have "call waiting," however, the beeps I talk about are not call waiting
beeps.  In fact, they are more like clicks.  Occasionly my phone will ring
for a split second, I will go and pick it up, and someone will be there (no
it isn't a caller since the phone only beeped a second and stopped).  Once
it was a phone company guy checking the network out (so he said), other times
nobody would answer me.  Also, during long distance calls I will hear beeps
(although this could be switching equipment, I don't use AT&T on my voice line
for long distance).  Anybody else experience this kind of thing?
