Default Telephone cable stolen again

A local industrial estate has had half a kilometre of phone cable

claimed to have installed monitors on the lines that will alert them if
they are cut again.


Perhaps a neat bit of Time-domain reflectometry so they can judge
exactly to the nearest metre where the wires have been cut, so they can
send some burly lads round?
