[Koha] displaying item call numbers

Hi all, I am stuck on a problem with my Koha opac. If you've had the same problem, I'd appreciate it
if you could give me some pointers.

My library uses unique call numbers for each item. But the Normal record view displays the same call
number for each copy.
For example, for the title "Questions of diversity", I have 3 copies.  This displays in the MARC
Detail page just great, like this:

Copies
Call number  	      Barcode  	 homebranch
301.2771 Simons c.2	210002	  MAIN
301.2771 Simons	        101539	  MAIN
301.27 Sim c.3	        210003	  MAIN

But in regular Normal Record View,  it looks like this:

Type/Format 	Call Number 	Location 	Due Date 	Last Seen
Book 	   301.2771 Simons
Book 	   301.2771 Simons 	MAIN
Book 	   301.2771 Simons


I think this is because the call number in Normal view is being pulled from the bib record (dewey or
classification), not from the item records.

I would like both these screens to display call numbers the same way.
Do I just change the opac-detail template, or is it more complicated than that?

You can see for youself,

Normal view:  http://www.thecenterlibrary.org/cgi-bin/koha/opac-detail.pl?bib=3

MARC view:    http://www.thecenterlibrary.org/cgi-bin/koha/opac-MARCdetail.pl?bib=3

Thanks for your help!
