Drifterdawg: If you're going to pull the tap anyway, why not monitor the port and see if the noise you're after goes away. If it does you only have to check the drops where you are set up, if it doesn't you don't have to take the drops off and can move on. Why test drops when you might not have to. Time is money.....
