The subject (which you're tried to change) is how to test the second phone
line on a Napco MA3000.  In case you're having trouble remembering, I
suggest you read the subject line of the post.  It is necessary and good to
automatically phone lines.  I assume we can agree on that much.  There is a
method, using listed hardware from Napco, to accomplish the task.  The
method does not use foreign or unlisted hardware.  Furthermore, it has been
approved by every AHJ who has seen it done.

Uh, no.  That's just your opinion and it's clearly based more on your
personal animus toward me than on your knowledge (or rather your lack
thereof) of Napco.

I don't recall any lyrics.  Can you hum a few bars?
