Not only for yourself, but check with some other HAM's up there, and possibly 
a class-action suit against Rogers Cable could be benifitial to everyone 
involved!

If the "powers that be" don't know about the installers and their attitudes, 
who's going to know? (Besides us, and what can -we- do about it?)

==========================================
Went to a swapfest in Belton, TX (near Temple, between Austin and Waco) and 
picked up not only another Johnson Viking II, but also got a Kenwood TR-9000, 
multi-mode VHF 10w transciever.  Now, to get busy and build me a pair of 
13-element yagis, and shove 'em up at 40'!
