Hi
I notice you have a lot of people telling you to buy MTS. I also agree but if you buy second hand look for the P symbol, this stands for parallel ie if you press 7 it sends a pulse for 7. If it is not P parallel when you press 7 it has to send 7 pulses. You will find a lot of MTS II that are not P. Massoth.de can do an upgrade at a price but I suggest you buy parallel.
Plus the hand set must be P.

If using wireless MTS, the transmitter & receiver also need to be "parallel".
