[comp.dcom.telecom] Northern Illinois CLASS Installation Schedule

veeneman@mot.com (Dan Veeneman) (11/15/90)

I just got off the phone with an Illinois Bell supervisor, who told me
that CLASS services for 708-639 (Cary, a far northwest suburb) will
not be available until next year.  She couldn't tell me exactly when
it *would* be available, as she had not yet received the installation
schedule for 1991.  She stated that the list she is using now for 1990
was received by her office in January, and that they are "doing their
best" to stay on schedule.  Her example was Waukegan, which had a
cutover date of October 15.

BTW, ANAC (Automatic Number Announcement Circuit) for the 312 and 708
area follows the pattern 1-200-xxxx, where the xxxx changes
approximately every other month (and yes, IBT is very tight-lipped
about letting that number out).  People I knew who had the number
generally got it by looking over a service person's shoulder as he/she
dialed it in to their buttset.
