If you have/had a linemans handset, post where you got them, because i had a chance with a verizon truck, parked right outside my house, and missed it. I woke up as it left!!!

Also, i want to know where to get one... for free!!!

[phreakblaze]

My 5 finger discount on my LM handset sure was great! I've never seen anything quite like this before or since: The guy left his entire tool belt hanging on the side of his truck. Perhaps he wasn't worried because it was broad daylight. And, it wasn't in some small, secluded, out-of-the way spot, either. I wanted to grab the whole tool belt, but I was on foot (As I usually am) so, I just grabbed the LM handset. As it turns out, I needed to give it some TLC to nurse it back to health a bit. It didn't look real banged up outside, but beyond that, it needed some work. I still have it. It's a Harris TS22. The only thing is, it puts out DTMF a bit on the low side, volume-wise. But, once I came to find out about 1 piece phones, I really have used the thing since. Besides, there's not a lot in the way of features exclusive to LM handsets. But, since many do have speed dial, It's interesting to find what they've got programmed in the speed dial slots. And, no, speed dial Isn't built into any of those 1 piece phones on the market. (All 2 or 3 of 'em).
