Hi Jim, " B Connectors " were notorious for corroding. If it's a dry location it should work. But I've cut out many B connector splices in my career and replaced with Scotch locks. This method in the video was to show how to fix wire even if you had nothing on hand to help out. Thanks for your comment. Ron
Hi, Yes this is true, but I just wanted to show the way it used to be done. It can still be done soloing as the twists are tight, and maybe even soldered. Not everyone has easy access to the modern connectors. Thanks for your comment. Well taken. Ron
Awesome - thanks - it's videos like these that make life a lot easier :-)
Thanks for your comment. Did you get a chance to try it? Ron
Brilliant - Thank you !
Thanks Sara. Your comment encourages me to make others. Did you get a chance to try it out? Ron
Can the Super B connector, also be used as a "butt" connector?

Hi Mary Ann. Did you get a chance to try fixing a cut wire? How did it turn out for you? I'd love to hear. Ron
Test by dialing BR549
Used by old timers because we no longer use the twist and tape method in the professional realm.
What's used now, just crimp connectors etc?
Killer2600 professionals also no longer use 4-Wire telephone cable either. They use CAT5e or better, CAT6 preferred
