The two distinguished-wave-determined slopes conjecture

Let MM be a tunnel-number-one orientable 33-manifold with incompressible torus boundary. A tunnel of MM determines a distinguished-wave-determined slope on M\partial M. The two-slope conjecture. The set of slopes determined by the tunnels of MM has cardinality at most two. This is motivated by the survey of tunnel-number-one manifolds with incompressible torus boundary; the supplied source gives no resolution, so the conjecture remains open.
