has anyone had experience dialing a modem to a long distance BBS
using a SPRINT (or MCI, etc) account?

the problem is that there are too many digits and pauses. it is
of course possible to add a ';' at the end to return to command
mode after dialing, but to execute another ATDT command requires
a dial tone, which is no longer there.

anyone have a good idea?

PLEASE SEND REPLIES VIA E-MAIL.

thanks.
