I have a certain extention that is almost 100ft with several junctions.

It seemt the last 25 ft don't work. Are there devices which
strengthen/extend the signals?

There are amplifiers for long loops

http://www.sandman.com/longloop.html (for example)

but if it's a digital you may be out of luck

Take care,

So, after traveling via crummy old low grade telephone cable for
anything from 1 to 5 miles from the telco to your house, that
last 100 feet is killing it????

You've got a cabling problem, which if fixed will allow
it to work just fine without any for of loop extender.

Check all of those "several junctions".

What Floyd said.... A friend is 41,500 feet from his CO. He managed to
kill his phone with a bad 25 ft cable. [The modular jack on the end was
corroded and shorting out...]

Now see when I read extension in the OP I thought single line extension
on a key or PBX system. Those have very finite distances that are far
less than several miles. It also depends on how many devices he has on
that extension.
