On US/Canada Couriers and Sportsters, the secondary RJ-11 phone socket is
physically connected, and works as a kind of mode-3 adapter.  However,
whilst Austel models have the socket fitted, it is not connected (in
accordance with Austel regulations).  If Frank's actually works, somebody
at USR has erred.

Quite so, but only the telco input is connected internally.
