Re: YEAH!

Come take a look at what Comcast is using in this system then...it's RG-6 with a messenger embedded. There's about 120 feet of it coiled up in the alley behind my office where it snapped in half two years ago. I had to get it out of the alley since Comcast couldn't be bothered to send someone out to clean it up. Even a tech who came by to disconnect a tap at the same pole didn't do anything about it despite me pointing it out to them. "We don't consider that a priority" were his exact words.

Was probably pissed that the last of eight customers on that tap had just gone to satellite...

down a mile of RG6, but hey, you don't really care about facts anyway.
Got news for you. But they're not shoving anything down a mile of RG6. Unless it is a mom-n-pop shop, they're using higher grade cable and RG6 from the curb to your home.
