Is possible to get an amplified speaker attachment for a standard landline telephone?
I have a very deaf very elderly mother-in-law who finds that at maximum volume speaker phones distort & even then are barely loud enough.
Alternatively is it possible to link the phone to a set of powered PC style speakers?
n.b. She is unable to use the induction loop system. She is also very technophobic so it needs to be a solution that I set up that requires little or no “fiddling about” on her part.
Thanks in anticipation
Thank you TheNorm for the welcome. Yes I have looked at RNID but there appears to be nothing that appears to have a large enough speaker to have the power without the distortion.
It is a shame she is so technophobic because when she comes to our house I sit herdown infront of the computer & she can converse with her grand & greatgrand children over Skype with the camera on so she can lipread.
