[comp.dcom.modems] Call Waiting Kickoff

27313853@WSUVM1.BITNET (Wim Bonner) (11/16/87)

I have an Unusual Request.  I WANT call waiting to kick me off of the
line.  I am Using a Ventel 2400 halfcard, and using Crosstalk to connect
with our IBM 3090 at 1200-e-7-1.  When I get the call waiting beep, I
get a little bit of garbage on the line, but usually I can keep working
and ignore it. (most of the time I don't notice it)  I would like to
be forced off the line whenever I'm doing local stuff.   Call Waiting
on the system that I'm using cannot be disabled.

Can you set up your modem to hang up when it detects loss of carrier?
That should take care of it.
