- Notes on Overseas Dialing
-
- Overseas dialing is done in two stages of outpulsing. The first stage routes
- to an overseas sender and uses 011, which is the international access code for
- International Direct Distance Dialing (IDDD) plus the paired country code. If
- the country code is two digits, the paired country code can be derived by adding
- a "0" to the left of the country code. Example: The country code for England
- is 44. The paired country code would be 044. First stage outpulsing for
- England would then be: KP-011044-ST. If the country code contains three
- digits, the paired country code cannot be derived in this way and must be looked
- up. Example: The country code for Guam is 671. The paired country code is
- 067. First stage outpulsing for Guam would be KP-011067-ST. Second example:
- The country code for Cyprus is 357. The paired country code is 087. It is a
- rule that a paired country code must never be the same as any counry code.
-
- About five seconds after the STart pulse, an international dial tone will be
- heard. This will time out to a reorder in about ten seconds.
-
- When the dial tone is heard, the system is ready to accept the second stage of
- pulsing in the format: KP-country code-city code-digits-ST. At this stage it
- is the country code not the paired country code which is used.
-
- Use the paired country codes when calling inward operators.
-
- Some toll offices are screened against 011 coming in on a long distance trunk.
- In that case precede the 011 with the area code which would apply for that toll
- office. Example: for a toll office in Gainsville, FL use KP-904+011+paired
- CC-ST.
-
- Another way to reach the overseas senders is to call them directly with
- KP-sender number-ST. If this doesn't work add the area code of the sender.
- Example: KP-904185-ST.
-
- This is a list of international centers with their area codes.:
-
- A/C Sender Location
- --- ------ --------
- 914 182 White Plains, NY
- 212 183 New York, NY
- 412 184 Pittsburg, PA
- 904 185 Jacksonville, FL
- 415 186 Sacramento, CA
- 303 187 Denver, CO
- 212 188 New York (same sender as 183)
-
- The routing for a particular country can be found by dialing normally (pulse
- or touch-tone) 011+CC+000+enough digits to add up to a total of seven inclucing
- the country code. Example: 011+44+00011. You will get a recording. At the
- end of the recording, the area code of the international center will be given.
- The sender used to call a particuar country can vary depending on the area of
- the country from which the call is originated. An international call can
- sometimes be completed through the wrong sender, but this causes a print out
- that will later be investigated to find out which CO it came from. To find the
- correct routing when pulsing through any particulat toll office use KP+paired
- CC+000+ST. For example, KP-011044000-ST would give the same result as dialing
- normaly 011-44-00011 if you were dialing it in the area where the toll office is
- located.
-
- The first digit of a country code is the world region in which that country is
- located. The world regions are: 1--North America, 2--Africa, 3 and 4--Europe,
- 5--South and Central America, 6--South Pacific, 7--Union of Soviet Socialist
- Republics (U.S.S.R.), 8--Far East, 9--Middle East and South-East Asia.
-
- Note 1. KP2 is not used in first or second stage outpulsing when calling any
- country in the IDDD network.
-
- Note 2. Public telephones are interfaced to TSPS (Traffic Service Position
- System). If you call an 800 number and whistle off using 2600 Hz, the distant
- toll office sends a wink back signal (a short on-hook) indicating it is ready
- to receive pulsing. TSPS responds to this wink back by printing out the
- original number called, the number called from, and the number MFed after the
- wink back. This print out goes to the billing and security departments.
-
-
- PAIRED COUNTRY CODES
-
- This is a list of paired country codes for use in first stage outpulsing on
- overseas calls. For two digit country codes simply add a zero. Example: The
- country code for England is 44. The paired country code is 044. Paired country
- codes that cannot be derived by this simple method are listed below.

- Notes: The Marisat codes are used when calling ships directly. Single stage
- outpulsing is used for calls to Mexico in this format: KP-180-City
- Code-digits-ST. To call an inward operator in Mexico use KP-190-City
- Code-09-ST. For directory assistance use KP-190-City Code-01-ST.
