     Anybody out there have an NT 1702 with the type of base shown....and could they post a few pictures trhe next time the have it open so I could duplicate wiring. I have two NT 1702s and each base differs from the other significantly . This one even has a different lamp socket ! Currently using phone in family room with a Western Electric 1702 base , but would like to use original  Northern base.
   Thanks,

    Spent this afternoon playing with this phone...took out board and traced wiring...figured it out , even though board has no labels for which post is which Only a few have letters near them ...and it WORKS !
:)     Love the push on posts and switchhook wiring directly to board.   I'll try and post a diagram this weekend .

   Here's what I came up with for a connection chart and base terminal location for a NT1702. Actually very easy tow rewire as there re no swich hook wires and no screw terminals.
