Hi again,

Well, I connected the RIs to eachother and the BIs to eachother, then to the yellow/slate of the phone set.

Still no bell on incoming call.

I tested for bell voltage on CO line, and it was there (when called) and I tested the BI/RI and there was no voltage.

I am going back to study the BSP, and I do remember that there was a dashed line going from the ring generator (49 and 50) to the BI and RI, but I want to confirm that with those of you that know what is what with this system.

One other question... Isn't the line button supposed to flash or come on when there is an incoming call? Mine do not, yet they light when pushed and they wink when on hold. (And I hear the interupter as well.)

Thanks again for all of the help!
I will not give up until this thing is working...
Then I will have to study the mysteries of intercom and plumb the secrets of the 415 cards...
