Re: [Repeater-Builder] Telephone Co Lightning pucks

[Richard D. Reese]

About four years ago I had an old box on my home for my Verizon North telephone service.  It had the carbons inside from 1969 when the house was constructed.  I started having noise on the lines and called Verizon.  Told them they  were bad and needed replaced.  They sent a man out who changed the box to one of the new modern ones .  No problem - no cost to me.  The only thing was the guy was new and I had to help him do it properly he did not know what carbons were!   Rich  WA8DBW       Richard D.
