Re: [Avid-L2] OT: What is the real name of a Hotline Batphone?

 

What does "home and visit SIDs" stand for?

In live television production it's a "ringdown" we use them for home and visit SIDs and official replay booth to the truck. You pick up on one end, the other end rings until picked up.

I have one in the basement. I'll try to remember to send you a picture. Pretty sure it could be pressed in intercom duty. JB

That would be cool, but what I really want is something that looks like the old point-to-point phone system that you see in submarine movies.  You know, the kind that are military/industrial looking.  Like you could club a mutinous crew with.

I've searched for Hotline, Batphone, Point-to-Point, and a couple of others, but I can't find what I'm looking for.

What I want is basically a 2-phone system that talk directly to one another without dialing.  So when you pick up one of the handsets it makes the other one buzz and/or flash a light.  No phone numbers.  No phone service.  Purely internal.  Like you would find in a private theater between a chair and the booth.

Any ideas of what to search for to find one of those?  A wall box with push button would work too.


Thank you,
Jay
