After experiencing the Bell Atlantic 'IQ' demo line, I decided to
hack for other interesting codes not yet mentioned.
'*52' returns the acknowledgment dial tone, similar to Tone*Block '*70'.
Since I don't (and won't) have Call Waiting on the line under
test, I have not been able to ascertain what function this code
performs. Any ideas?
'*91' returns a dial tone and performs the same function as
'*72', Call Forwarding. '*93' clears the forwarding. Very interesting...
Now, since I have grown accustomed to the conservative, almost
backward attitude which prevails in Washington, DC, I was shocked
to find that progress may actually be knocking on Congress'
door; surely these features, whatever they may be, will not be
implemented before they have been tested, retested, and
somebody else tries them first!
I have not turned up any others yet, but the thot plickens...
