The 616 is/was a good little system. There is a card next to the CPU that would cause a weird problem. IF the person you were talking to had call waiting on THEIR line and THEY got the battery break/beep/battery make, the 616 would drop the call, if that board had a problem! WAS THAT EVER FUN TO FIND! I know it sounds strange, but it happened to several different systems in the 12 years that I serviced them. We only used the HCPU, so I don't know if the basic CPU did it, too. John C.

When I was young, I was Liberal. As I aged and wised up, I became Conservative. Now that I'm old, I have settled on Curmudgeon.
