Actually, it was capacitive coupling between the wires, not inductive.

It is capacitive if no current is flowing in the live wires.

Moron. There is no cell service on my home to tether to, General Failure. I have five networked \'Real computers\' on my desk. The coax for my broadband was replaced, but they refuse to reconnect me without screwing with my network. Go hump some else\'s leg.

Much more sensible. Guage is meaningless and is the wrong way round, higher numbers are smaller!
