        Sounds like someone had a software loopback somewhere where
there should have been a software x-connect.

        How you'd do this with wiring:

        you have transmit wired to receive on the "far-end" and also
wired to the "near-end" receive. The "near-end" transmit has electrons
falling out of the end of it's cable though.
