I've been looking for something resembling a key system for home use.
"The successful candidate will" support two lines and up to six
phones, contain a dial-intercom, support speaker-phone paging or
operation, and ideally not require me to pull new cable. This means
it should work on three pair (six wires) or less.
DAK had a closeout on GTE "Wolfpack", but if it's closing out, and I
could just see Higdon commenting about GTE....
AT&T (another Higdon favorite) has something called System 2000. The
sets are called 2052 and 2022. They require 110VAC, and from what I
can tell need only the two pair for the trunks. This means that they
must do some fancy phantom circuits or multiplexing, right?
The cost per unit seems high (219 - master, 179-slaves), but then
again, it's not 2000 for a key system.
Except: there must be small key systems out there, and if the price is
right I'll break down and pull wire. Does anyone have specific
recommendations?
Email is fine: mike.riddle%inns@iugate.unomaha.edu,
riddle@hoss.unl.edu, or
sysop @ 1:285/27@fidonet.
Thanks.
