If the Phone Company pays the bills, I get to install/maintain the service. Had a trouble ticket Friday -- wierd, but the Line Record shows the owner to be our Construction group and MLT showed hard grounds tip and ring, so I get to work it. Address was given as Doogan Ave and Del Amo Blvd in Carson. There is no Doogan Ave in Carson. J.U. to today.
This morning I find the B-Box under a highway bridge, lift the jumpers -- if the trouble is in the underground it's an easy fix. *SIGH* It is toward the aerial/customer premise. Line record shows the 1.1 and customer premise to be in a manhole (photo, right.) I get to "No Access" the trouble. Need the customer to come out to open the manhole -- *IF* they want the line fixed.
