KLD, we were working on a GTE OMNI (OMG) at AFI. They had one OMNI on Eisenhower and 1 OMNI on Fort Leavenworth. Linked with a T1. My very 1st T1. Didn't know a thing about it, but I was the 1 that figured out that the wiring inside the cabinet on the Fort was shorted! (Almost broke my arm, patting myself on the back!) Some idiot at the factory wire-wrapped the center conductor of the RX cable right on top of the outer braid. Discovered that about 2AM. Man was that a long night! Now he's in IN and I'm in NC. Go figure. And don't ask about the cheerleader outfit, I was the only 1 that could get into it, unfortunately. John C.


When I was young, I was Liberal. As I aged and wised up, I became Conservative. Now that I'm old, I have settled on Curmudgeon.
