How about this ... the lines are fiber optical right? Normally fiber
optics have lasers and receptors at both ends so unidirectional lines
only have lasers on one end and receptors on the other ... sound good?
Or was there some mechanics quirk? I can't remember, my copy of NAGRL is
with a friend ...
