                         MTACs Operational
            with Limited Monitoring and Control Capability

This bulletin is reissued with two corrections to the trouble desk
phone numbers provided below.  The corrections are noted with
asterisks (*).

As of 6 February 1991, DCA began process of declaring operational those
MTACs with operational users connected.  However, the current versions of
the software installed in the MTACs and in the Monitoring Centers' C/70s
allow only a limited MTAC monitoring and control capability.

The software to allow the required MTAC monitoring and control capability
is being developed.  A new version of the MTAC software has been
completed.  However, the patches to interface the new MTAC software with
the C/70s are still under development.  The estimated completion date is
July 1991.  Until then, MTAC users should immediately notify their
respective Monitoring Centers if they have suspected MTAC problems:
