I should think that this would make no difference to the Max. The Max
picks its modems independantly of whatever strategy the telco is using to
pick channels, as far as I know.

Now I wouldn't be surprised if the USR hardcoded each modem to a channel
(in fact I think I've observed such behaviour), the design seems braindead
enough to work that way.
