So if the MAX looses a modem pack, And dosen't have the necessary
resources to answer a call, It busies out the entire hunt group?
Lets see, My biggest hunt group consists of 150 pri's, If I loose
a modem pack say in the front of that hunt group, The MAX has
just brought down 3000+ incomming channels. 

I believe the behavior of the MAX should maybe just disable enough
channels and match channels to resources, Say 72 channels, 65 good modems
then disable to get a ratio of 65/65. 

Or is there a way that I can get the switch configured to behave in
a more apporiate way?
