RE: [TCML] Pole pig ( does it never end? )

["Jim Harvey (UDN)" <harvey.james@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

My neighbor works for the power company and I had this discussion with him
last year.

Normally, power companies recycle the pole pigs. But, there are cases where
they will phase out one design in favor of another. The result is that used
pole pigs come available from time to time.

The solution, given the above, is: make a good friend at the power company.
Or, move next to a guy that works for the power company. Or go to work for
the power company. Or, like Buffet, buy a power company.

Friends trump greedy suppliers any day.

As always, your mileage may vary.

Subject: [TCML] Pole pig ( does it never end? )


Guys ( and you are, mostly)
I've been searching the archives the past three days for clues of sources of
pole pigs. Lots of data available but also dated - like 5 or more years. I
wonder if there's any recent info. For instance has anyone recently acquired
from Solomon or T&R? Temco is literally within an easy driving radius. Are
they a source?

I could start cold calling these suppliers but like most technogeeks I find
that form of human interaction to be abysmal and would much prefer to know
apriori that I will reach a friendly ear ( or to just use email )

Any help much appreciated.

With kind regards
Joe
