Have a thread open at https://forum.vcfed.org/index.php?threads/analog-phone-lines-at-camp-evans-v...
So the Usual Suspects at Camp Evans (the home of the VCF brick and mortar museum) have racked the ADIT-600 channel banks adjacent to the main exhibition space in Building 9032A.
Both are cross-connected to RJ-11 patch panels, and CMG (SIP) service cards added. At the moment, they are on the Camp Evans Backbone, however they could be isolated on their own fiber and fed from CDL (Building 9059)

Anyone interested in provisioning an Asterisk box locally to provide analog dial tone during VCF East 2026?? No takers or interest???
I think I remember seeing that a few weeks ago, and I was wondering what that was for! I *would* do it, as I operate a number of Asterisk systems with associated equipment and this is right up my alley, but unfortunately I'm not local so I'd likely only be able to attend Saturday. If someone else is able to do any needed wiring beforehand, I'm happy to help with setting up the box remotely if needed. I have a CMG card myself but haven't done anything much with it, and using TDM is really the proper way to set up a channel bank - IMO, using SIP will offer a significantly degraded experience. Any reason T1s can't be run back to the Asterisk server, particularly if it'll be on site? NA
