It is essentially a call blocking service that depends on Caller ID. My pet project takes things a step further by initiating a call trace on suspicious numbers, and also files FCC and FTC complaints. The program works well with Conexant, Accura/Hayes and MultiTech modems. The program chokes on USR modems. For USR I get the RING message, but not the Caller ID information. From my program's perspective, it looks like the Caller ID information is never sent. So I want to perform some low level traces to understand why I am mishandling things. The GNU screen program receives the information as expected. The problem is, GNU screen does not show me individual messages. I don't know where one message ends and another begins. (One of my theories is the USR modem is batching RING and Caller ID into a single message).
