Indeed the telco has no interest in changing the cable, and by the time they send someone to look at the cable it's a sunny day and everything dried out. Hence the order for PRI. Can't wait to fire it up tomorrow.<div>

</div>YES- You need the local Telco to either busy out the line, or remove<br>
from the hunt group. This solves the incoming problem<br>
You also need to do the same in your Zapata for outgoing calls, simply<br>
put that channel in an unused group.<br>
<br>
I do hope you hunt from last to first for outgoing, and the telco hunts<br>
from first to last for incoming. This will reduce, but not eliminate<br>
head on collisions ( glare )<br>
<br>
Since this seems related to rain/moisture, trouble is probably external,<br>
but if your telco's are anything like the big boys in the US, there will<br>
be little interest in repairing the cable trouble, wherever it might be<br>
OSP repair is of little interest to the big boys any more<br>
