Message-ID: <6365@accuvax.nwu.edu> Date: 12 Apr 90 14:12:15 GMT Sender: news@accuvax.nwu.edu Organization: TELECOM Digest Lines: 6 Approved: Telecom@eecs.nwu.edu X-Submissions-To: telecom@eecs.nwu.edu X-Administrivia-To: telecom-request@eecs.nwu.edu X-Telecom-Digest: Volume 10, Issue 252, Message 5 of 12 There was a recent article about the 299 exchange on Naushon Island, Mass. in this Digest. (Now in area 508.) I was again able to use the Bellcore number for prefix punch-in, and got Falmouth (on the nearby mainland) for 508-299. Getting a town name does not mean that the prefix serves the town proper.
