What's an F3 w/button handset?

[Greg G.]

Apparently this one has one:  http://seattle.craigslist.org/skc/atq/1872351148.html ( dead link 03-04-21 )

Paul has one listed here....scroll down to the section on handsets.

The link to Paul's website is a good one.  To sum it up, it was a push to talk button so that if you were in a very noisy environment, you did not have to hear the noise in the room you were talking from. 

In radiotelephone applications, it was sometimes used to "key up" the transmitter.

But isn't that phone an AE 40?

The phone is an AE40, so the handset is incorrect for it.  The price is too high also, especially since the rubber is missing from the base.

With a badly stretched handset cord to boot.  I wasn't interested anyway, just curious about the handset.

I got a kick out of "Heavy-weighs 3 pounds" i would love to see them pick up a 302 if they think that is heavy

I rather like the number card on it though.

I looked in the Tenproject Database, CYpress is not listed.  Most of the ones starting with "C" were in Texas.
