Re: Strange Phone Line Issue

["Crash Gordon" <webmaster@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

What's the voltage on the line?

I've had problem with voltage drop on rural service.

I even have a Vista 15 that even though the voltage is good it does the same
thing you describe (fortunately he's a local) but I can't remote program and
never did find out what the prob was...probably noise but I don't have tools
to measure that.

| I have never heard the CID before on any other line as I did on this one.
| It really sounds like a modem carrier for about 1 second.  I turned off
the
| CID on the line and tried again just to check and got the same result.

|

said
| that he had seen it happen on another carrier a few years ago.  Need to
| investigate this possibility further.
|
| Thanks for the inputs so far.  Every little bit helps.
