We just played that game. Phone went poof. Signal at the demark, none in the house. I figured it was the cable from the demark to the punch panel, so I hopped to another pair (the now-unused second line was handy). Still no joy. That made me think it was a short somewhere. So I started ripping out jumpers to various rooms until I got dialtone at the panel. Sure enough, the loop to the living room is shorted. I moved the TiVo to the other jack in the living room for now.

A couple of days ago, the automatic volume ducker started triggering randomly, and I'm hearing that squeal on the lines. Another feed going short-circuit? Ick. I went out and bought a bunch of bridge clips so this time I won't have to hardwire the various loops.

Want some bridge clips? And a 66 block to put 'em on?
