This unit is more versatile than
the Radio Shack model which
was selling at around the same
$69 price as of a year ago. That

calls, you call the pay phone lo-

mability that you can enable or

PRECAUTION
Another security reminder: the
entire line must be secure -oth-
erwise anyone with a telephone
can plug into your jack and dial
away at their convenience on
your line.
INSTALLATION
That's why this toll restrictor can
be installed at the arrival point of
the service into the building in a
secure utility room area, for ex-
ample. Otherwise, if there is no-
body scamming your jack, it can
be surface mounted by the phone
itself. Its cover captures the
phone's cord, so the device wil
not be bypassed by the casual
wiseguy.
