Your welcome Kenny. I think the ITT is light beige.
The cords and jacks are for making some test cords. I will PM you later with some confirguration ideas.

The residue was double stick, I think this had the "large" # overlay on the dial.These were an "approved" attatchment and were intended as a help for poor eyesight.

I see that you found a dial center holder already.

By the way does any one know how long a phone will ring until it cuts you off?

That's a good question.  How long will a landline ring if you let it go?  Seems endless. 

Dan/Panther

McHeath;
It does seem that at one time it was almost an endless ring, but now I think it may have a ring limit. I don't know anyone without voicemail to test it on. I would guess maybe 30 rings or less.
