Since I was a small child, I have always been fascinated by the telephone system. I can remember hanging out and begging for a tour of our town's #5 Crossbar system. Having said that, this is kinda over my head.

I have a telephone number (line?) from another state in my house. I have been told that this is a "foreign line exchange circuit" or DS0 circuit (Digital Signal Zero), whatever that means.

The line went down, and those codes were in my repair record after I reported it. Of course, I was curious what they meant.
