In my own quest for rf proof phone lines, I too went the CAT 5 route and
had little luck. What I finally did was twist all the unused wires together at the ends of the runs where the phones are and then ground the other end at the service drop. That made a major improvement. The with simple el cheapo plug in filets at each phone I ended up with no rf problem at all! I can now run a KW or more and not have the wife yelling at me when she is on the phone. Before I did the CAT5 thing, I had go so far as to put the "well known brand" of filters in the phone line at every 1/4 wave length and had no effect. Berrry
