A device called Fax Line Manager sells for $89.95 at the Price Club
here in S. Cal. I got one for myself but never used it until I sold
it to a client. It works for him. So get this: the thing answers the
line itself, then emits a low burp of tones, then decides if the
call should go to the FAX line or to the voice line, and then it
RE-GENERATES A RING SIGNAL OF ITS OWN on whichever line it sends
the call to! That's a 90 VAC signal! I was amazed! But then,
I know what it takes to do that, being an electronic engineer, and
all.
