At Dave Harrison’s, I programmed the speed calling feature on four of his phone lines, so that all I had to do to dial directly in to the POTS number at the radio station was press "9#." I was counting on the fact that calls routed through the 800 number would take just a bit longer to connect. Then, too, the numbers for Dave’s office were switched through the same central office as the station’s POTS number, meaning that our calls would be completed instantaneously. But would those minuscule advantages, plus using multiple telephone lines, be enough to make a difference?
