I've seen several threads on using an amplifier to help generate a ring signal to old style rotary phones. I've looked at the circuit diagram here: Telephone ringing circuits I have an amp, a Sony. I have a transformer, a Radio Shack model: 6v or 12v to 120v (mounted backwards). I have a...

No. If I go ahead with new dimmers, I'll get someone who does installed systems. Turns out PORT lighting did the install for the new auditorium in the school just north of us, so they're a good choice. I'll try Barbizan for a second quote. If I just change a couple of the fixtures, I can do...

Hello. I'm the director(of everything) for my high school's theatre group. We recently lost the main processing unit in our old light console (Leprechaun 1600 48/96) :evil:, and the tech I spoke with about repair suggested it wasn't worth it. We're currently in the "sell candybars and beg...
