To activate x2 in the US modems, all that is done when they dial up to the
USR BBS is a single bit is changed in the NVRAM which stores the builtin
options and country code.  I reckon its possible to create an SDL that not
only sets this bit, but also changes the country code to whatever you
like so that we no longer have to wait for USR to update the Austel SDL :-)
