That's what I love about this list-- sometimes you can get the info that you 
need, but, it comes to you as if it were part of a recipe, ingredient by 
ingredient, because no one on the list wants to take the time to explain 
anything.  Nevertheless, I appreciate even the briefest of explanations!

Thanks,

-Mac-

A telephone is full duplex. Full duplex meaning that you can speak  and be
heard, no matter when you speak and if someone else is speaking or not.
