So we know, and I know, that a dry copper pair has no load coils, etc. Generally sells for about $20/line.. sometimes less.
Is there something that iLEC will sell that has load coils in it? Like say, if I wanted to run voice over it, and didn't care about data? IE.. I know this is VoIP, but say I wanted to put an analog extension someplace. Is there a cheap alternative I could hook between me and the remote location, going analog all the way?

The question is really can you get dry copper short enough cable ft to span the locations you need and still work with whatever hardware you want to throw on the ends of it ? as far as the conditioning, you could probably even get 20000ft without coils if the CO is halfway in the middle since the coils would be based on the radius from the CO in the first place, but then again is your hardware going to reach that distance and be able to maintain any sort of decent transfer rate ? again, I'm interested to know anyone whose actually done this, and what the results were, since I have been thinking of the same thing for a while.
