who uses FSS?

The basic problem could obviously be fixed. The system always knows which
cell site your phone is registered to at any given moment. But changing
the routing sequence on the fly for a somewhat arbitrary selection of calls
is software development money that the public carriers are not going to
spend.

It will probably get pushed to a head commercially when they start requiring
more fancy number portability (accross area codes).

Most people here I think understand the problem.


I believe you're right about that.



I don't have the time or interest in explaining it to you.


You're not in a position to explain it to me.



Read the thread, I think you can figure it out if you want to.


I had it nailed from the start.

In my opinion, he could but he wouldn't. All he had to do was what you
ultimately did, except it would have been far easier for him to do it than
for you to do it. Plus it's his job...


How would it have been far easier for a distant FSS? Where does chasing
down distant ARTCC phone numbers appear in his job description?

I thought this thread had run its course two weeks ago, but suddenly two
new msg's popped up.

As for the above question... well, I'd say it appears under the name Flight
SERVICE Station, just above where it lists "opening and closing flight
plans" as one of their duties (and by presumption, whatever is necessary in
order to do that).

Remember, this is normally not a problem. Just this one particular day
that one particular guy was (by his own admission) having trouble getting a
clue. Usually they are pretty good at tracking down requested information.

The key word in my questions was "distant".

If you already know the answer, and don't think I can answer it anyway, don't
ask the question.
