All,
I'm working on a 7204 router with multiple FR DLCIs, one for internal WAN and the other for Internet access (using VFR for routing table separation, T3 physical/18Mbps CIR). We have priority queing enabled via map-class on the subinterfaces and we aren't seeing drops on the subinterface queues. We are still seeing drops on the serial interface, though, and some voice quality complaints. My question is, should we lower the CIRs manually to match, attempt to add the service policy to the main interface (dumping FRTS), or do something else? Since I don't have visibility to what's being dropped (can't show policy-map int) I'm not sure if the drop behavior is what I'm expecting. Any help is appreciated.

You won't see output drops under logical interfaces, you will only see it under physical interfaces.
S1/0 represents both logical interfaces and there is congestion on egress.
You mentioned having 18Mbps from the provider - that's your CIR for all logical interfaces under S1/0
You've configured a map-class that instruct the router that each logical interface can use 18Mbps.
If both logical interfaces, per your example, are sending 18Mbps at the same time, you will have oversubscription on the serial interface.
You need to create a map-class that will provide a total of 18Mbps for both classes, not each having 18Mbps.
You must also make use of the mincir effectively along with a frame-relay adaptive shaping mechanism.
My recommendation for your map-class would be:
map-class frame-relay VOICE-MAP
frame-relay cir 18432000
frame-relay mincir 9216000
frame-relay adaptive-shaping interface-congestion
frame-relay fragment 1000
