I thought the Disk ][ card had a pair of 20-pin plugs?  How many wires
go to the plug?  If it's only 2, then you've probably got the
connections for your red & green phone wires.

Probably.

>Or was this only a controller card for an external modem?

I wouldn't think so.  If it was only "halfa modem", it would probably
be a lot smaller.
