Transducer

What does it do and how much should it cost with pouch? Thanks, Mike

Actully im wrong , the unit above is a Translator ( Der Ubertrager) I misread your message.

its for matching the impedence of the public POTS system to the field phones, with a case i would pay around 120-140 withthe case .. under 90 without.. I paid 55 for mine with no case

as for a Transducer, go here,

in our case a transducer we would use would be replacement ear/microphone elements in the field phones.

that brings me to my question.. Why do you think you need one?

Package Deal

I really don't need it, but the picture you sent me, same item with case in a package deal for a FF33 Field phone with strap. Only problem , shipping was as much as the deal. I found a working tested 2nd phone today and my Backpack cable reel arrived today so things are moving forward. Thanks again for the input and advice, Mike
