HELP, I'm in need of .....

[Guest]

I am looking for an old type telephone. This phone would need 2 or 4 button lines, like an old buisness phone, and rca jacks (speaker jacks) on the side or back.
This will be used for answering the phones during the shows.
The problem is, funds. A phone hybred can cost 400 - 750- dollars, and this would actually be easier, and cost efficient.
So, if you have seen or know where one of these phones are, please don't hesitate to PM, IM, or email me.
Radio stations use to use these phones to get their callers onto the broadcast. I know, it just too simple!!
If you have any ideas, please let me know!!!

Ebay, maybe?

I'm having a hard time finding the phone itself. Could one of these be used, with an inexpensive or second-hand phone or two....or three?

Also, you could check for surplus auctions for businesses and hospitals near you. I know we have one every once in a while here where I work. Lots of old office machines, computers, desks, chairs, phones, and so forth.

Unless someone out there in S2Kland actually has one already on hand?

I believe I have an old Allstate phone. They went to a new phone system and I brought one of the old phones home. Let me check and see where it is. It is a 4 line.
