There are S registers that increase the tenacity.

You have the right brand, but I would recommend the Courier line.   I sell
Couriers for $449, but as a SysOp you can get them direct from USR (the SAME
one) for only $249.

I believe that most all SysOps would agree with me that external modems are
definitely the way to go for running a BBS.  (I've been running a BBS since
the mid '80s)
