Dallas Hinton was heard mumbling incoherently to Ben Sloat 
about Bink 2.60 DOS question again...

It's a USR Sportster 33.6 Fax Modem.  Here's what my docs say about AT&Z:

AT&Zn=s         Writes phone number string s to NVRAM at position n
                (n=0-3).

So, as such, I do not wish to be writing to the NVRAM every time I init
Binkley.  You never know though, you could be right.
