Intended more as a passing comment in
another thread,
b*cat mentioned that he would -- when he "got a round tuit" -- replace the current
BT80A between his incoming drop-wire and the internal CW1308 spec. cable with a
BT80B-RF3.
So earlier today I took 50 minutes to perform that 5 minute task.
All is now connected just as if a "proper man" had done the job and the result was immediately apparent in my downstream throughput.
