Tap, tap, tap...is thing on?

Yes, it's on Arthur. Sometimes people forget to thank everybody!

It's not about thanks. It's about sharing expertise. Forgive my sarcasm, as I've had a rough day. Weather, fire calls, 40 year old friends having strokes, you know, the usual stuff.

The original question EXACTLY asked about installing common ringers, versus line ringers. It did not mention at all the fact that the wires had come loose, or that the intent was to re-install a formerly working situation.

I posted a direct link to EXACTLY the BSP required for a full understanding of the problem. I then interpreted the BSP EXACTLY in response to the stated question, with EXACTLY the pin numbers, along with the theory of operation in superficial form.

Then a person whose screen name implies a knowledge of, or at least an infatuation with, Western Electric key telephones in the 2565 series says that my explanation is too complex.

If I'm wrong, never hesitate to tell me. I have thick skin, but I am always willing to admit my shortcomings.

We all have those days Arthur. Here's to a better tomorrow! :toast:

Sorry guys. I thank everyone for their help and expert responses. Arthur, yes, you did answer my question in your first line, however, I too am having one of those days and just couldn't see "the forest for the trees"!

I appreciate all of the help I get from you guys here! I am not an expert, but more of an enthusiast. I've always liked this equipment and now have a working system throughout my home!

Again, thanks and here's to a better tomorrow!

I'm happy that we kissed and made up. My Ebay name, by the way, is 2565HK-59.

Speaking of relative problems, today's event concerning my friend was frightening. A 40 year old robust man, with three kids, one a newborn, was sitting in his easy chair, eyes open, normal pulse and blood pressure, and could not speak, or focus his eyes. He could not raise his arms when instructed to, nor could he follow a finger that moved in front of him.

We immediately radioed for a medivac, and he's in the hospital undergoing brain surgery.

Makes you realize...

Scary........

Yeah Arthur thats where I have a problem with all the FREE information given out here to people that are too anxious to have someone tell them how to do somethig and we never hear from them again.

In all fairness to the OP, he did thank folks for the help. He just, as he stated, overlooked a couple, which he corrected.

While you're correct that some don't always thank those who help I think most do.
