                  (818) Area Code Helper
                     January 17, 1983
		(2nd version by Kim Levitt)

On Jan. 7th, the  213 area code which used to cover most of 
Los Angeles  County  was spilt in two.   For the benefit of
those who are changing dialing menus or macros,  here  is a
list of the  former 213 prefixes which are now 818.  If you 
dial  one  of them without the 1-818,  for  the  next  nine 
months you will probably get connected, but you might get a
recording which may, (probably will),  keep your modem from
connecting.  After Oct. 1st, (or possibly sooner), you will
not be connected unless you dial the (818) area code.   The
prefixes which were changed are listed below.

The above list was compiled from a listing published in the 
Santa Monica Evening Outlook, supplemented by several calls 
to General Telephone Information.   Any errors are probably 
caused by my poor proof reading.  (Prefixes  505,  780-789,
790 and 791-799 were omitted on first version of this list.
These additional prefixes were listed on page  A-80  of the
Pacific Telephone  June 1983  Los Angeles White Pages,  and
have been confirmed to be a part of the (818) area code.)
