     I've found out too late that the Everex 2400 baud modem is garbage.  It  
     comes with a speaker phone, but it doesn't work for data communications.
     The CD light comes on at power up, and as soon as a connection is made,
     the message PHONE OFF-HOOK appears on the screen.  The modem then dis-
     connects the session.  'Tis quite frustrating.

     Does this sound like something I am doing wrong?  I'm using ProComm
     and there are tons of soft switches I could have set wrong.

     Why o why does our computer store only carry Everex???  :-(
