Does anybody have any suggestions to stop coiled cord stretching for wall phones? I have thought of running a string or wire through the coils & securing both ends, to keep it from stretching, I don't have a bunny pen holder:) Any thoughts?

John,

That's a great idea.

Gary,

You could always change out your wall phone and go this route. :)

I just take the cord on my 554 and hang it over the switch hook(it is a nine foot cord though)

It's easy, just reduce the earth's gravity thus reducing the pull on the wire and therefore reducing the problem of stretching... :)

Just try not to jump too high though...  ;D

John I like the rascally rabbit. How about using a cord-zierre?
