[GreenKeys] Loading Coils

[Bob Camp]

Hi,

Mostly what I was thinking about was the need for roughly a roll per 
TU. If there are a couple dozen people on here who decide to do a TU 
then that's a lot of coils. I'm just wondering if they are still out 
there in bulk. The stuff they came out of used a lot of them at a time. 
Something like one coil per pair per mile. Put in a twenty mile chunk 
of a couple hundred pair and you use quite a few coils. Work on a few 
circuits would swap out enough coils to keep us all going for quite a 
while ...

I realize that a lot of stuff got converted away from base band between 
1960 and 1980. Most of the local loop stuff is less than a mile to the 
box these days. I just find it amazing that they still aren't working 
on doing some of the coil based stuff. There's a lot of miles of wire 
out there .....

	Take Care
