Kinda reminds me of verizon socal issue which took place around OCT,
2005 time frame.

I thought one could request reports in writing under the Freedom of
Information Act? BTW, we also have couple special agents on list who
could possibly shed some light.

Sorry, I wish I could provide more information on the situation. I'm
still trying to establish contact w/ FCC, TEMA and others for their
co-operation.
