in General Discussion & Questions · Sept 3, 2008 21:30Where I wrote: "out of "ans" # 1 and # 4, into "tel" # 4 and #1" I should have indicated: into "tel" # 3 and # 2 as I had it wired. The handset does get the phone line signal (dial tone works; can dial out and complete c…

in General Discussion & Questions · Aug 27, 2008 14:18Thanks PL! That's one more piece of the puzzle, as I see it. So the good news is: my answering system may not be malfunctioning; the bad news is: I need a hard to find item (or need to duplicate its function, somehow)! P…
Failing CDX Player
