Thanks!  I definitely wanted to only deal with fax only, so what you
suggest is the answer.

On the other hand, I am having a hell of a time setting my USR faxmodem so
that distinctive ring is turned on.  I read the documentation and
supposidly

ATS41=1 should do the trick.  However, this simply causes an error
whenever I try to give the command.  I figured I would then save it in
vram, but this is just not working.

Any clues?
