[linrad] 56Kb phone modem PCI card?

Hi,

Before I go reading a bunch of "self documeted" source code,
to figure this out, does anyone here know anything about the hardware
found on your typical 56Kb phone modem PCI card?  A phone modem has
some pretty nice hardware on it.  An ADC and a DSP.  Most are flash
programable too.  It may also be possable to install two modems
in a PC
