However, there is a sysop here in Sacramento using one to run a BBS and voice mail system. He has it set up so you have to make two calls. On the first you tell the system that you wish to call the BBS. Then you hang up, wait and call back in about 30 seconds. The BBS answers then. I've called and it works. -- Bob Breedlove SYSOP: BOBsBBS (916/929-7511) pacbell!sactoh0!bfbreedl
