Ok, what I am encountering is a problem trying to find an acceptable trade off in balancing the Pad levels to accommodate the loss encountered when there is a trunk to trunk transfer during CFOS applications. Whenever the two CO's are bridged, there is a significant signal loss that I cannot find a suitable PAD level adjustment for the customer that does not effect the other applications of the trunks. Does anyone know of any tricks that might give me greater amplification? :bang:
