The manual doesn't address such a screwy application.
Desqview handles background communications very nicely. However,
could one be running a BBS on COM1: while using Crosstalk to dial out on
COM2: -- two asynchronous protocols going on simultaneously in separate
applications? Has anybody tried this? (This assumes two phone numbers.)

You will need to make sure that both applications are not swapped out of memory.
