There is the L# command where 0 >= # >= 2 which controls loudness.  0=quiet,
2=loud.  I do have a complaint about the Everex:  It drops the carrier when
you pick up the extension phone.  This doesn't bother most people, but for
people like me who aren't sure if there is a computer on the other end, it
gives us a chance to apologize to the person who answers the phone.  (Also,
I like to monitor the progress of a call.  For what good it does, since it
garbles transmission if you're not very quiet.)
