Per the January 19 edition of "MIS Week", the "The Network" column, page 4:

"Modem maker Bizcomp is looking for the worst phone lines in America.  It 
wants to test, in the harshest real-world conditions they can find, a new 
line of 2400bps modems, which, they hope to claim, can handle bad connections
better than the competition.  Sites chosen for testing may get a free modem.
If your phone lines are really bad, find a better one and call 
(408) 733-7800."

Surely someone(s) on the net should be able to qualify.
