With the help of many people here I got my inherited Nortel 11C converted over to POTS lines and the T-1s finally got turned off.

Now I am getting periodic DTC005 messages. All of the reference books I can find (including GHTrout's wonderful collection) skip from DTC004 to DTC006!

Anyone have any idea what this error code is trying to tell me?

Reference clock switched to secondary source from primary.

It's doing this because you turned off your T1. Check your DDB in LD 73 and in LD 60, set your cloccking to Freerun. It doesn't see the primary reference so it is switching to your secondary reference (PREF/SREF settings in LD 73)
