Dan:
 I think you will be disappointed if you are going to use the phones as
a voice output. For some reason Pana puts a screeching tone to alert the
user before allowing a page. I've tried to defeat this with my 616 analogue
KSU but have had no luck and abandoned the idea. Perhaps Reddy has solved
that particular problem.
