Yes, I have an older single shield feed. I was hoping it would get
snapped off during the winds last night...
Hmm. I have room in my 1" underground conduit that I ran from the pole
to my telco demarc point. 100' of quad seems like a good investment if I
can't get Comcast to replace the single. I do have some construction
going on that _might_ interfere with the current location of the
cable...
