A home builder called me this morning about some cable work done by his
electrical contractor. The contractor used CAT3 6-pair and folded back
the white/slate and red/blue pairs in his jacks.

The same contractor that used a come-along to pull CAT5 cables in
building install...that failed CAT3 testing at 10 Mbps.

In the Bad Old Days I came across ThinWire LANs installed by guys that
also installed roof TV antennas and inside wire. One of them loved
twist-on BNC connectors and never used a crimp tool. That office was
a dependable source of income for me until I re-crimped everything. .
Any time they had the cleaning service in I'd get a call the next day.
