Re: [HH-CHAT] bugged?

[Damacus -HHChat <hharc@damacus.dyn.ml.org>]

I don't know if there has been any ideas sent in reply to this yet, but it
is possible that this user has an X2 modem (it makes a beep before the
completion of a handshake to detect an X2 serving modem) or possibly a
K56flex (although I've nbever connected using one befire).  

Adios,
