I've got an answering machine that picks up on the 2nd ring. It does everything else right, and I don't want to swap it out. I opened it up and traced enough of the circuit to discover that the circuit doesn't lend itself to simple <change this resistor to x value> modifications like my old Phone-Mate 400 did to change the rings to 6 or 7. Somebody must make a small box that would "eat" the first N rings, thereby delaying an answering machine from 2 rings to N+2. Ideas? Even if it's just a pointer to an old issue of Popular Electronics, or something. US Snail: Mike Morris UUCP: Morris@Jade.JPL.NASA.gov P.O.
