	General Telephone and Electronics
		General Telephone and Electronics was the largest of the "independent" telephone companies during the days of the Bell System[?].
		GTE provided local telephone service in a large number of areas of the U.S. They also owned Automatic Electric[?], a telephone equipment supplier similar in many ways to Western Electric.
		GTE operated in Canada via controlling interest in subsidiary companies such as BC TEL and Quebec Tel[?].

	Abt Electronics Telephone And Answering Machine Buying Guide
		Telephone communication is key to both your home and business success--and the right phone can help you catch important calls, ensure privacy, manage multiple lines, and even save you on long-distance charges.
		Nonvolatile memory electronically stores data (memory-dial numbers, digitally recorded greetings or incoming messages, and other settings) that needs electricity only for being read or written and not for being stored, so it is not erased when the phone's power supply is removed.
		Telephone answering devices fall into two major groups: digital and tape (digital is also called tapeless), with some overlap between the two.

	Telephone Book Varieties
		The sections most often found in a telephone book are an alphabetical list of subscribers (the "white pages"), a classified list of businesses (the "yellow pages"), instructions for telephone users ("information pages"), the covers and spine (usually printed on card stock), and a listing of government agencies ("blue pages").
		Telephone books published by any of these companies can often be identified by the bell on their cover.
		Telephones on a party line were electrically connected, so that they would ring simultaneously, and transmit the same sounds.

		Telephone line signal to noise ratio is not as easy to quantify because noise comes in many forms, such as electrical interference from fluorescent fixtures or hiss from the many amplifier stages in the voice path.
		Telephone line equipment are designed for specific 600 ohms impedance (or 900 ohms on some places, varies somewhat from country to country) to match the impedance of the line and the equipment on the other line end.
		Telephones are designed to work in such way that there can be many telephones on the line, but the system is designed so that only one of them can be in use at the time.

	Telephone History: 06. Part F Archives
		GTE and Automatic Electric went through tremendous growth in the 1960s, with A.E. expanding to four different facilities.
		GTE was then a poorly managed conglomerate of 23 regional phone companies and a maker of, among other things, televisions and light bulbs.
		GTE had their problems as well, especially with customer service, getting worse and worse through the late sixties, with the company admitting their problems by conducting a highly unusual national magazine ad campaign in November, 1971.

		Price elasticities are estimated for local telephone calls and minutes of conversation using data from a pricing experiment in central Illinois conducted by General Telephone and Electronics.
		The nonlinear generalized least squares estimates of the elasticities are fairly small--about 0.1 or less in absolute value at experimental price levels--but they are estimated with high precision.
