hi
hi
My name is Stewart Allen. SOrry to bother, but I visited your interesting site while researching a question for my wife and wondered if you might have any insight to share. Essentially, she has a very small business here near New York in the U.S., and she loves the old BT 706/746 phones and wants to bring them in for her shop. The problem is that you’re not supposed to do this unless you can prove they’re compliant with federal rules called “part68″ which sounds very Orwellian but is apparently just a set of standards so the networks don’t get muddled up. We assume they’ve been tested or approved in some way in the last what is it 50 years, but we can’t seem to find anything. It’s a shame, they’re so lovely. Anyhow, if you have any insight or suggestions on who might know something about this any suggestions would be much appreciated.
Again, my apologies for the questions out of the blue. And thanks again
Sincerely
Stewart
