- I found the June, 1992 Jacksonville, Florida directory on Phonefiche
- tonight.
-
- It's official, that 1 + 904 + number is required within 904 area code
- (northern Florida), even though that NPA is probably nowhere near
- saturation with its NNX scheme. All of Florida must now dial 1+area
- code within the area code, thus it looks like Southern Bell opted for
- state-wide consistency in dialing, and changing things well in advance
- of the interchangeable NPA system in North America by January, 1995.
-
- Meanwhile, another note in the directory announces the start of a
- semi-local dialing from Jacksonville to Hilliard at a cost of 25c/call
- *flat rate*. This was effective 6 August 1992. Perhaps this
- arrangement is the shape of local dialing to come.
