I have read (somewhere) that with the phone system we have here 
in Northern VA/Washington you can disable the call waiting by dialing 
a certain code (# or * combined with 2 digits).  However, I don't have
call waiting so I've never had any reason to try it.  We are serviced
by C&P Telephone, a Bell Atlantic Company, but I don't know what model
of switch they use.
