Narrative:
I was working the R79 position and handed aircraft off to sector 83 (sector 83 has FL300 and below). Aircraft was at FL320 (sector 93 has FL310 and above; through FL360). Sector 83 accepted handoff on aircraft. I switched aircraft to sector 83 frequency; thus allowing aircraft to enter sector 93 without handoff.
