I doubt you can do this.  My exchange is served by New England Telephone as
well, though I don't live in the same area code, and the company reps
refused to allow me different grades of basic service in the same residence.

I've wondered, though, what would happen if the phone is in another
building, though on the same property.  This only becomes an issue when we
build our barn.  e.g., They won't let me have measured service on my second
line in the house because I can make all my local calls on the unlimited
line, but am I allowed to have measured service on the barn phone, since
I'd have to go into my house to make a "free" local call?

I'd be interested to hear what you find out about hunt groups.
