If tracing a pair of wires, such as those used for
a telephone line, a lineman’s talkset (also called
a “handset”, “buttset”, or “craftset”) can be used
to positively identify the pair. Connect the sus-
pect pair to the talkset. If you have located the
target pair, the FOX Jr warble TONE will be heard,
strong and clear, in the earpiece of the talkset.
