Since the Franklin switch itself is at Washington and Franklin, I'll assume
you have Franklin phone service.

From there you have A-band calls to the following nodes I know of, in the
order I think of them (there is no endorsement implied by the sequence).
[Thanks to Randy Smith for compiling the Chicagoland Providers FAQ, from
which I learned most of this information.]

WWA and InterAccess in Kildare
Tezcat and Grapevine in Monroe
AIS in Superior
MCS, Ripco, and SUBA in Lakeview
CIN in Merrimac
InterAccess in Wabash (I understand that this is a forwarder, not their
    own node, but [1] that information came from a competitor, [2] IA's
    Kildare indial is their own node, and [3] there might be no difference
    in service between a forwarder and their own node for all I know.)

WWA just moved its offices to 20 N. Wacker, so they may be opening a Franklin
indial soon (just in time for me not to get much benefit from it, sigh, since
I'm on the verge of being kidnapped to suburbia) as well as the existing one
in Kildare.
