[VoIP] British PAX

[Andy]

I have the earlier wood cased version. 24V BTW!

Mine has Busy Tone (Comes from the BT relay) , (you can hear it out side the
case, going buzz-twang, buzz-twang), and has 'Your' single beat ringing.

Mine is a bit poorly, I've never had more than one call though it at a time,
theres too many dis coils (although I do have all to bits spare!)

This does have 25 lines, I missed extension 20 when counting - it's in the
middle of the wiring block.

Actually, I think you have a GEC 25x4.  It has 25 lines.  I have one of 
those too.  Nicely made little thing.
