I've included below the summary output from the nifty perl script rad-info
that Chris Adams so graciously made available a while back. This shows
about five PRIs worth of calls over a month or two. We're in a community
with about 60,000 in three closely located cities with the usual mix of
smaller outlying communities. We're about 50 miles south of Houston. We
have all kinds of line qualities, user qualities, modem qualities, etc.
These numbers are a little skewed since they don't show the analog pools
where many of our lower end modems live.

The number I've been tracking the past few months is the percentage of
calls over 33.6. It has held fairly constant at about 3.5% of the total
since we put in the 56k cards. I thought some of you might be interested
in some comparative data. I'd be interested in your observations and any
data you might care to share with the group as well.

By the way, you can get the script at:

P.S. - Many thanks to Chris Adams for taking the time to make the script
available to us!
