anybody know of a replacement (Straight line) ringer for a AE 40?
I am not picky, just need it to make noise when called.
Thanks

Which ringer? Later type 40 sets have a smaller ringer that is the same mechanism as in the type 80.Just switch the brackets.Do you have a bad ringer or a freq. ringer?

RB

it is a freq.
phone dated 37, i think

rdelius

Are you sure about the date? . Type 40s were introduced about 1938.
is this a type 34a3?.You need the larger ringer either way. You might need to replace the capacator to match the ringer. .47 uf  @ at least 250 v would work







you

RB

pretty sure???
ringer is big
not sure of model tho
I just want something that fits.
