I have an old phone system in my home that came from my office. I think it is 1A2 equipment. It has ten button phones with transparent square buttons and uses A-A1 lines to signal the busy lights. I want to use some modern single line phones on the system. I got a box from TT Systems Corporation in NJ called a "key system adapter" which has a sandwich plug in the 50 pair line and buttons with busy leds for the first five lines. They don't make it any more. The new box they have is a TA-50. But when I use it it causes the bells on all other extentions to fail when that line is selected on the box. The phone connected to the box rings. I would like to use these boxes but can not solve the problem. I also have a box that was made by Northern Telecom which sort of matches the phones that also has six lighted square buttons, that I use to switch a single line phone. This box does not have a circuit like the T-10 to make the A-A1 connection, but I have solved that with a small relay that senses talk current. The questions I have are what is this box called and where can I buy some? Thanks for any reply.
