I recently moved to a somewhat less advanced part of
Maryland. After getting 3 lines installed for this site
we started to experience periods when we could not raise
dialtone for hours at a time. We called C&P repair service
at least 10 times and they checked out the local lines and
at the C.O. with nothing amiss. When the lines die,they
are open or "busy" .. Is there anything I can do to solve the
problem from my end,or suggest to the local repair office?

I have heard that they are getting ESS #5 next year so I
suppose my problems will be resolved then,but this is
really damaging my uucp traffic.

BTW, we are not the only ones experiencing this problem
in the area,so it pretty much eliminates on-site trouble.

Thanks for any positive suggestions..Meanwhile I am biding
my time.
