Attenuation Jumping Between Low and High Values?

(1/2) > >>

ktz392837:
I have been trying to sort out my line that has been having problems for the past couple of weeks.  Engineers have tried to fix but still having problems after they fix one problem it is another.  Any ideas on what could cause the line attenuation to jump between a low and high values (20db between them) along with a corresponding high & low fttc sync speed? Thanks

Black Sheep:
20db !!!! I'd be surprised if you had a dial tone with such a wild 'swing' !!! Or at the least, a very crackly phone line.

roseway:
As BS implied, it must be an intermittent connection, maybe a complete break in one leg when it's in the high attenuation state. The engineers really ought to be able to find it.

ktz392837:
Yes it is crackly probably the worse I have heard. 20db is not an exaggeration!I take it I should send this back as a not repaired?  What should I be saying I have been fobbed off with wait x days and everything will be fine? Any pointers greatly appreciated.  Thanks

Edit:going for a resync record

Black Sheep:
I think you've already answered your own question. Don't be fobbed off.
