Me too! I would hope, though, that I could get the wireless unit on the 7.2KV side and not the
unit that bridges from the 7.2KV side to MY side. Yikes does that sound bad.

My pole and transformer sit about 100ft from the house so a healthy wireless unit would work fine.
One thing that did concern me in reading about the various types is that they all describe the 7.2KV
unit as the only one in use. We will be converting to 14.4KV out here in a little while and I would hope
that it too would be used as a transport medium.

For now I am still on dialup until my Telco co-op puts in DSL, if ever, or BPL comes around.

And to make this gun related, the power company replaced a bunch of old poles out here last month
and I managed to snag 4 of the 35 footers to saw up and use as backstop for my home shooting range.
It eats everything that I can launch at it.

(Had a funny thing occur - I wrote "It s-u-c-k-s up everything..." and the tyodr converter made it "It stinks up...".
Glad I caught it as "stinks" would have made no sense at all. I guess "eats" is an OK word).

Kind Regards,

Tom
