Hello world,
Im Andy, as my username suggests, and I'm a telco tech up here in Canada.
Most of my work is on fiber fed remotes, and buried plant. Doing both POTS and xDSL installs, updates, and provisioning.
A large amount of the highspeed I work on is fiber to the last mile -however- in some places its all CO based. We've started doing fiber to the home, but I haven't received training on that yet.
Done a fair share of apartment work as well as aerial, but most seems to be buried plant.

So I assume most here are private installers and hobbyists?

I would say that a large number of members own their own interconnect businesses, while others work for one.
Some members are retired Bell System employees while a few, such as myself, work in other parts of telecommunications (Central Office technicians), but also know something about telephone systems.
