Hi Scott and the group, Just a thought... If the equipment you are testing responds unfavorably to something the environment, it does not matter that you pass GR-1089. And, I have seen lots of stuff that affected lightwave equipment not covered under 1089 that got the operating companies pretty upset. For example, jingling change (we had a discussion some time ago on this list about this), but there are others.
The customer expects the equipment to work the way he wants, not the way we design or the marketing org sells it, or the way it is tested. Give me a call or send email and I will briefly fill you in on what I have seen. It would be difficult to type it all here.
