I was under the impression that in order to hook up to a modem not only do
you need Rx and Tx, but you also needed RTS ( Request to Send ), CTS ( Clear
to Send ) , DTR ( Data Terminal Ready ), and DCD ( Data Carrier Detect ).
I'm not sure if these signals are vital to the interface, or if they can be
tied active.
