Vadic was giving out free autodial upgrades whenever you brought a modem
in for any service.  They have two modes of autodial.  One is you type
^E and it says "Hello, I'm Ready" and then you type D and the number (I think),
and the other you type "^A" then it says B and you type "^Bnumber^C" and it
comes back and says A if it works and B if it doesn't.  Nothing is echoed.
