I have a 162 selector switch that went to a RR telephone system that I decided to repurpose. I removed the #60 selector switch...didn't work, bad coils.... and installed 2 GTE Line ringers from my parts bag.... planning on installing it today.... replacing a L1A outdoor ringer and a #7 bell. The bell that is in the 162 chassis will replace the existing bell and I'll have a louder bell for my main line plus a ringer for my C*Net line.... the unit even has room for a 3rd ring, if I want to take the time to add it.... Pictures enclosed...
