I have a Siemens wall phone which I believe is a 300 series. Can anyone help with identification and wiring help.
I found some info here:
http://www.britishtelephones.com/siemensb/311.htm.

My father said he had trouble with the bell circuit.
I have sent photos to Brad.

Peter.

Nice phone there. Remarkable similarities to the standard PMG wallphones inside.

Hi Kevington, my Dad gave me this phone before he passed last year, he said the ring circuit was not working, I think !! I was after a circuit to check operation. If you can help me understand the full workings of the phone it would be appreciated.
