I am currently attempting to quantify "something". At present, I would prefer not to go into any details other than to say that the Bald_Eagle1 and the Walter-with-wheelbarrow know that I am giving thoughts to "something" -- which may prove to be useful.

It will be a significant help if those Kitizens with an Openreach GEA FTTC VDSL2-based service and using an unlocked Huawei HG612 as the active CPE would please send me (via a PM) some specific data --

• The entire output returned by an xdslcmd info --pbParams command invocation.
• The one line relating to tone 70 from the output returned by an xdslcmd info --Hlog command invocation.

b*cat performs one of his best Japanese-style bows, in advance thanks.

Edit: To correct a minor mishap.

Thank you, everyone, for your contributions. 

Please "spread the word" that I will appreciate receiving data . . .

I shall now start to "munge" it, a little at a time. I except to see some form of result by the end of the week and then will either continue the project    or  dump it into the litter tray.
