I have a can with string too. We're compatible! How do I connect my string to your string so I can test my new system ? |

I got string but no cans. Please help me out? What kind of cans needed? Steel or aluminum? Lined or not? Corn, peas or soda? Coke or Pepsi?
Help! Going to grocery later today.
BTW, are they easy to configure?

| knot in the can? what? does that mean I have to drill a hole somewhere? Good Gigabytes! Where is a schematic? How precise the hole? How big?
I think I just might go back to POTS and PANS.

I have plastic cups and wire. Uses the PCW codec for superior sound. Reliability can be a problem if you pull to hard.

My string supplier came unraveled. Another string provider SuperString offered me 2 free months, why won't they accept the fact that I have already paid someone else for string, and not charge me anything for the next 5 years worth of string?

Just returned from the grocery. Boy, cans are expensive!
I think I will wait for recycling night and take some out of the neighbors bin.
Sheesh! Who knew?!?
Or maybe I'll check ebay.

said by Prayer :I have a can with string too. We're compatible! How do I connect my string to your string so I can test my new system ? Very simple and follow the following directions:
•Make sure your can comes with an RJ-45 and RJ-11 ports.•Connect this RJ-11 port to the RJ-11 port of a (cordless) (DECT) phone system.•Connect the RJ-45 port to one of the switches on your router.•Dial 911# to test your system and hopefully someone (if I am not there) will answer to response to your test. Good luck. |

Make sure you clear the can's cache first or else you will get an overflow error. it is a common problem. The first time I tried out my new set I got an ear full of corn kernels. That was specifically a kernel error. |

That was specifically a kernel error. Now you tell me. I left a few string beans and the string theory went south. Now my sounds all distorted. I am hungry to boot.
Never mind, I ate the beans and the sound amazingly cleared up.
PS Help the underprivileged: send your empty beet cans to TeleBlend. (SourKraut might work too) |
