(818) Area Code Helper
January 17, 1983
(2nd version by Kim Levitt)
On Jan. 7th, the 213 area code which used to cover most of
Los Angeles County was spilt in two. For the benefit of
those who are changing dialing menus or macros, here is a
list of the former 213 prefixes which are now 818. If you
dial one of them without the 1-818, for the next nine
months you will probably get connected, but you might get a
recording which may, (probably will), keep your modem from
connecting. After Oct. 1st, (or possibly sooner), you will
not be connected unless you dial the (818) area code. The
prefixes which were changed are listed below.

The above list was compiled from a listing published in the
Santa Monica Evening Outlook, supplemented by several calls
to General Telephone Information. Any errors are probably
caused by my poor proof reading. (Prefixes 505, 780-789,
790 and 791-799 were omitted on first version of this list.
These additional prefixes were listed on page A-80 of the
Pacific Telephone June 1983 Los Angeles White Pages, and
have been confirmed to be a part of the (818) area code.)
