I'm thinking it may be rare as well, but how hard would it really be I
wonder?
The 1 PRI that is different from all the others is an 800 number, served
be a different telco, my LD carrier, and it's off a switch 3 cities away.
I will be starting up yet a nother hunt group of service from MFS as they
just got approval to do local service in St Louis, and with all the CLEC's
turning up all over the country, I don't think it will become very rare at
all for customers to want/need to do 2 switch types.
Think about the micro ISP with a single PM3 and 1 PRI, they happen to be
in a city that has a CLEC, and they decide to offer dialup service from
both telco in an effort to make even their dailup pool redundant, but
telco A will only provide NI-2, and telco B, the CLEC can only do DMS-100
and NI-2 is way off after the next switch load.
