I've done that before when I lived in Evansville, only I used either the red or green wire through a .001 uF cap. The phone line was disconnected at the pole. I had just switched to a cellphone and got rid of my land line, so I decided to put the unused phone line to work. Icon_smile It was nice, picked up signals fine.
