Hi Godfather,
Thank you so much for that photo. I hope you don't mind, but I snagged it and put in my my phone photo pholder, for future referrence.
Someday, I hope to put together a system like that, as I have had to scale back the switch plans for a while until we get my wife's folks situated in our house. I suspect that I will be back at it by late next summer or early fall. I am still working on my 555 board, which is coming along nicely.
Thanks again!
Best,
Joe

Not to be off-topic, Joe, but you mentioned the walk-in tub. Is that the kind with the door on the side? If so, I met someone who has one and she doesn't like it. The handle is too difficult to pull when trying to seal/unseal the door. She doesn't mind sitting there waiting for it to fill up around her, but she doesn't like waiting for it to drain almost completely before she can get out--says it gets cold sitting there wet and naked. Just FYI... My mum has one - the handle jammed and she was stuck inside. I think she'd have tasered the installer's nuts if she could.

Wow! Talk about a huge side track of a legitimate topic. Perhaps the private message feature of this forum might have been more appropriate?

No problem Joe. I can PM you some better ones if you are interested.
Certainly heavy enough to be a boat anchor! Although that telco closet is really dirty, there are type 66 blocks with red, blue, and green backboards mounted above the KSU rack (not visible from the photo.)
