 ND> Hello Scott! your message on 12-06-96 about LINE CONNECTORS
 -> Nope... All supra 28.8s have their phone connectors wired in
 -> parallel (So the relay doesn't turn the line out jack off).  Why?
 -> Who knows...

    To prevent interrupting the modem when some one picks up a phone,
 I have a unit from Radio Shack... part number 43-107
 called Tele Protector. I don't know if they still sell them, but it 
would be along side of the phone-connectors stuff. About 2 inches
square, and may say somethin about "prevent eves dropping".
 Cost was about $6.00, but that was a couple of years ago.
 Any phone connected "behind" it is disabled if any thing else is
 on line.  I wouldn't be without mine. Example: it is plugged in between
 phone upstairs and wall, so that phone can never interrupt my modem
 downstairs.. (or listen in). 
  Hope this is of help... Kenny P
