I get what you're saying, but...

1. We already know the slots that the cards will go in have their own IRQs.
2. Twenty-four FXS ports is overkill for two faxes. :)
3. Believe it or not, but the office this is going into has no POTS
lines, just PRI and T1.

So in the end, I think we have a solution that will work, and if it
doesn't, I will take your (and CF's) advice with the channel bank.
Thanks.
