I received a notice from Bellcore today announcing that beginning 1/12/92, dialling 1+NPA for intra-NPA toll calls in area code 206 will become mandatory. This is good news, because I was afraid that when they got around to permitting NXX format for prefixes, that they might do away with 1+ for intra-NPA toll, making it difficult to tell when one is dialling a "local" toll call. The new dialing procedure will be enabled 10/6/91. A question I have is on the average, how long after the switch from NNX to NXX prefixes do they finally announce an NPA split?
