Aaaaaand now we have a baby little ADSL DSLAM in the CO homelab :3

ET&Y is now offering very competitive rates for home internet services (limit 12 customers only, actual speeds may vary).  

Really really need to pick up a telecom rack to stuff all this year into; the table is getting cramped and we don't even have the DSX patchbay, HDSL mechanics shelf, or -48V plant supply in there yet.

I have to admit, I’d never heard of “Telefacsimile” before... learned something new 🙃

Wonder if there would be any interest in [FPV] streaming some retro CO phone lab tinkering.

Most of the phone messaging/calling I do is with my wife. Both working from home we’re usually in close range. Thinking about installing a 1970s-style intercom system between house, barn and home office. If we had a CB radio in the car we could wire a transceiver into the intercom and have a pretty slick system that covers our remote communication needs. Do away with these distracting smartphones and pricey data contracts.

It’d be good weird fun + a big quality-of-life upgrade. #othernetworks

In continued phone-nerdery: Welcome to the Tandem Straylight.

Let's get some old CO gear talking to each other  ☎️

It has been a good, silly, evening, filled with 66 blocks, phones, T1 circuits, and glittering hardware.

Need to order (find?) some plug-in surge modules for this building terminal.

Safe to say things are getting deeply nerdy, here.
