[NJARC] Need Merlin Handsets

[Al Klase]

Steve,

I have a working system here at the Flemington house, and there's a 
second control unit, or whatever they call it, that probably just needs 
a back-up battery replaced.

The system's a minor pain because you need to run 4-pair cable to each 
station, but these days there's probably enough cat-5 laying around, and 
connectors are pretty cheap at home depot.  The boxes I have will handle 
4 incoming lines, and 10 phones each, hence: Model 410.
