Note and Comment
This is the March 1991 edition of the BC exchange chart. A number of
omissions from the previous editions have been resolved. Any further
additions, corrections, findings, etc would be welcome.
New listings for 1991 include Vancouver (230, 268, 739, 822), Richmond (244),
New Westminster (351), Vernon (558). There seem to be new dialable locations
opening up: Takla Landing (448), Hartley Bay (841), Kitkatla (848),
Winter Harbour (969) and Fort Babine (975).
The 200, 201 and 205 were at one point apparently dialable, active
exchanges. 604 is not formally using the "interchangeable" prefix
format where exchanges can have 0 or 1 as the middle digit. However,
the 200, 201 and 205 numbers would terminate in such locations as
the "Mutual" central office and the "22 exchange" office. These are
no longer active from the looks of things. However, BC Tel has started
up business office numbers on an "811" prefix (such as 811.xxxx) which
is accessible, but seems to be a special hack and not an official
start of interchangeable prefixes as such. 604 is close to the point
where something will need to be done to expand prefix capacity, though.
Of note are some exchange names: the "Mutual" office, sometimes referred
to in recorded error/problem announcments as "Mutual DS4" is the
big downtown Vancouver exchange. The "Mutual" includes some 66x and 68x
exchanges, among others; the letters MU of Mutual represent 68, a
holdover from the days when letters were used for exchange names.
Another popular exchange out in the University of British Columbia area
is the "22" or "Castle" (CA) exchange.
363 was listed in one source for Vernon Lake; 363 has now become a
Victoria number, but 363 might have represented an exchange that was
used before being discontinued or amalgamated with another service.
Thanks to Dan Fandrich (shad04@ccu.umanitoba.ca), here are other
items of interest about the Vancouver area:
- 228 prefix (Vancouver) is used for University of British Columbia
numbers; this may indeed be on their own exchange
- There is evidence that 280 (Vancouver) is a choke exchange, as the
common use of this exchange among radio stations, ticket agencies,
etc. indicates.
- 291 (Vancouver) is used by Simon Fraser University administration;
as other businesses, etc. use 291, it is unlikely that SFU has
exclusive use of 291, but perhaps a block of numbers in that prefix
