The telephone system serving Huntley will provide new optional services for 1,300 customers beginning Saturday, June 22.
One service, for example, call Waiting" allows a telephone user to answer a second call while talking on the telephone. This and other new Custom Calling features will be available when Olinois Bell completes the final phase in its Huntley switching office.
"No matter how many times you've done it before, there's always some tension in the air when the time for the actual change to new switching equipment rolls around, "said Stan Jozwiak, Illinois Bell Community Relations Manager.
"It  will   all  come  togetiier
iday night when our central "otiice technicians begin the final steps in the countdown to put the new electronic equipment into operation," said Jozwiak. "The equipment will serve customers whose telephone numbers begin with 669."
"It's a lot like a space shot. Nothing can be left to chance. The final phase of the countdown for this cutover began six months ago with the start of construction of a new building to house the equipment in Huntley." Jozwiak said.
According to Jozwiak, the new   switching   system   uses
comoputer logic, electronically- stored programs of instruction and microelectronic circuitry to set up customer talking paths.
"The new equipment oper¬ ates on a digital basis which means it converts signals into the on-off pulses of computer language," Jozwiak said. "That will make it possible for the switch to handle information more efficiently in virtually any form-voice, computer data, text or visualimages."
When a customer dials a local number," he said, "the equipment instantly selects a path to the called telephone and ringing begines at once. It's similar to a pocket calculator flashing the solution to a problem as you press the 'equals'key."
Electronic switching makes several optional Custom Calling Services available to customers. This includes the freedom to add a third party to a conversation. To    forward
incoming calls to another telephone number and to dial frequently called numbers using only    one    or    two     digits.
