Re: Beaumont, TX


If you find out...let me know.  I did the Original Strand Mapping for the cable build back in 1969 while working for Jerrold Electronics.  The original owners were Gulf ...???, back then all I had to do was get a scale print of the city...then ride through and spot all the poles we needed to contact to build the system,  no measuring between poles as it was a scaled print-one inch = 2oo ft, towards the end, they sent in Sonny Ripley to help me.   I'd just like to know how they made out with prints.  Back then I carried around with me an Alaskan Malamute dog, one night I went out for a brew..and the damn dog chewed up about a weeks worth of walk out prints...which I had to go back and re-do.   Oh while, shit happens !!

*While mapping Beaumont...I ran over to Orange Tx where my buddy Oscar Davis was building the system, we had some great fishing w/ends over in La back waters.
