Re: (ASCEND) AMI to B8ZS conversion?

    Adding to this...
We have several site with PRI's coming from the main C.O. I am told that
is the same C.O. which services this town. I guess the AMI comes into
the picture when it hits the first Microwave tower.
    So is there anyway for the phone company to convert to B8ZS after
the microwave towers?           Thanks for the help - Tim
