I TOLD you we should have bought Belden!

We found this in the middle of a 500 foot roll of Stereo Zip Cord.
There is, obviously, nothing going to get through the left channel.

And it's a good thing we did, too.... If we'd pulled it into a conduit, and THEN found the problem, we'd have taken this sample to exhibit in front of the vendor's booth at the N.A.B.
