go voice

communications When two or more parties stop communicating

digitally and resuming the conversation via voice

communication over the telephone.

Prototypically this is used (e.g., "Wanna go voice?") between

two modem users to denote the action of picking up the phone

while shutting off the modem, in order to use the same line

for voice communication as had was being used for data

transmission.
