Need Corded Phone - Keypad in Base - No Volume Control
Posted: Sun Oct 14, 2007 6:06 am
I've got a hearing impaired relative. I want to buy the Clarity Ameriphone
HA40 phone amplifier. It has three requirements. No cordless phones.
The keypad must be in the base and the handset must not have a
volume control.
I immediately thought of the traditional desk style office phone.
Here's one that at first glance looks ok:

The description says nothing about a volume control. If you take a
closer look at the handset you'll see a little slider. Its not the volume
control for the ringer. This phone has an old fashioned double-gong
ringer, so the ringer adjustment must be in the base.
It may not be possible to locate a phone that meets the requirements
of the HA40. For a few minutes I thought the AT&T Trimline 146W was
the right choice. Again, it has a volume control in the handset.
As you can see, I need a little help.
Thanks guys.
