Re: (ASCEND) reorder (fast busies)




Alex:

Thanks for the info.  We've already been through the switch configuration
a dozen times in relation to another problem (dealing with bipolar
violations).  It appears as if everything is matched up 100%, but perhaps
it's time to hang the SCC over their heads again.


NOTE:
	It's amazing how fast Bell will react when you calmly mention the
	SCC to a supervisor in repair, and how much of a pain it would
	be for me to file a complaint, and for Bell to deal with it.
