Now here's a question: should I put in any cable TV wires as long as I'm running wires? Right now there are cables, but they run along the floor and are in the way. Putting them in now wouldn't be much work or expense.
And, I don't know how you feel about this decision, but I've ripped out all of the old telephone wires (which, you might remember, were also running along the floor every which way, mostly under the carpets) and I don't intend to replace them. In my view, the days of wired phones are very limited. But I understand that some potential buyers, particularly older couples, might want land lines. So if you'd like me to put phone lines in, let me know (soon). They won't be any more trouble or expense than cable lines.
Lee ~ I agree with your assessment of telephone wiring, but think it might not be a bad idea to keep one working jack (maybe in the kitchen?) to appeal to older folks or for use in emergency when cell service is unavailable.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you are re-wiring everything. It would have to be done eventually and doing it while everything is open is much more efficient. It should also make the renovation safer for both you and Martha.
Don't know what to tell you about cable. How does satellite work? Does Angola have a system like Auburn is doing with internet/cable and telephone all together?
I think a road trip to Martha is in our near future.
Stay warm and watch out for icy walkways.
