Would You know, or any body else for that matter, if there is a solution for
an aggravated problem, being the above configuration (voice & fax) plus
BBS?  As I would like to do some experimenting in the near future with
playing / setting up a BBS for the sole sake of trying to achieve success.
I only have one telephone line and I will not get a second one for the one
just to do this one experiment.
What I know so far is, that this might present a major challenge, at least for
me!

Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated.
