A Hacker's Field Telephone Release status: experimental [box doku]
Description	A DIY field telephone kit
Author(s)	Paul, Phil, Severin

The Chaosvermittlung is a group of people that builds up a field telephone network at hacker conferences and camps. One idea that came up during the GRODEN'18 was to build our own field telephone. Let's do it!

Ideas

• Use an old regular telephone as a base, build a PCB that replaces the old internals
• Build a telephone from scratch, laser cut case, etc.

Open Questions

• Do we need a transformer? Or can that be replaced?
  • If not, what kind? How to get it easily and cheaply?
• Do we need the ringing voltage generator? Or can we replace that?
