Andy
I actually have a static caravan on Hazelgrove at Salburn and spend a bit of time there.
Thanks for your input.
What I am looking for is a fools guide to connect the two units.
I have progressed since my initial post to the point that when I connected the plug on the bellset attached to the phone as instructd in earlier posts, the following happened when I rang my number using my mobile.
The mobile displayed a message that call divert was active!
The bellset rang. On picking up the handset on the phone all that was audible was the ring, ring sound indicating a call was being attempted. On depressing the cradle this stopped and the bellset rang.
In other words I could not get a line on the handset from my mobile.
Would appreciate any suggestions.
