(PM) PM3 CT1 Provisioning question.

Well, this is my first encounter with GTE. Most of our other dealings
with the phone company have been with Sprint/United, which has always
proven to be a joy! :)

Anyhow, I ordered a CT-1 through GTE and they said they would have
no problem doing B8ZS and ESF. Well when it came time to install it,
they said their switch could not do B8ZS/ESF.

Instead they want to use AMI/SF. I know the PM3 can do AMI but it
looks like SF is not an option for the framing format. The GTE
tech told me SF and D4 are the same. Is that true?

Also, is this setup versus the one LE recommends going to hurt performance?
Is it going to limit the possibility of doing 56K connections with any
reliability? I have no experience with anything other than B8SZ/ESF so
I am a little anxious about this setup.

Any comments are much appreciated!!!!

Eric
