RFT Variant

[LM Ericsson]

I'd like to share one of my latest acquisitions: a 1975 RFT (Rundfunk- und Fernmelde-Technik) Variant 70 N in a not-quite-red, but more of a salmon color. I got this one from Ebay for about $50 total from Germany. I liked this one because of it's color and also because I've never had one before. Other than some dirt (probably from storage) and a seized dial, it is in quite good shape. I have already begun to restore it and so far it has gone well (the pictures are from before the restoration). I would like to know more information on this one.

Interesting. That ringer set up is unusual.
