5.0 Rating Mine worked - 12/28/2011Original German Field Phones Requires D Batteries Bakelite Case Set of Two Phones5.0000
Reviewer: Mark
Both of mine are in excellent shape. One worked with new batteries and the other didn't, I could hear from the first but not talk. It didn't make the click sound when I hit the key. When I looked at the battery connections I saw some corrosion on the posts and sockets. After a quick cleaning it worked great. One of them is missing the red patch cord. All of the other electrical connections are very clean with no signs of corrosion.
4.0 Rating Too Cool - 12/10/2011Original German Field Phones Requires D Batteries Bakelite Case Set of Two Phones4.0000
Reviewer: Atomic Schnoz
4 bullets considering.. After reading other reviews about non-working phones I ordered 2 sets to make sure I got 2 phones that work. 3 are nice one is rusty and needs a new handset cord. (microphone does not work) The ones that work however are super cool. Came shoulder strap, new battery compartments (except for rusted one), German instructions, cables for external battery (maybe a hand crank generator find me one CTD!)and plugging them together for conference call?. I might wire the field phone handset up to the headphone jack on my cell phone, put the cell phone inside the case and walk around the shopping mall talking on it.
5.0 Rating As I Hoped - 6/26/2010Original German Field Phones Requires D Batteries Bakelite Case Set of Two Phones5.0000
Reviewer: Robert
I anxiously waited for my F33 Feldfernsprecher (Field Telephone) set...wasn't sure what to expect after reading the other reviews, and some Internet info I was able to find. But my phones are in very good condition with no cracks or breaks anywhere. Also very clean and without rust or battery corrosion. The units are exactly as pictured in this site description, which was surprising as these units were made in many variations. My phones are dated August 1960 and November 1961. Both included the patch cables, cranks, "D" cell battery boxes, and an interesting cable with attachments on both ends that will plug into each other. Not sure what this cable is for but it's two ends match the battery box pin holes, and the bottom of the battery box receptical in the phone box itself. Don't know why you would want to...but there it is. There is a cradle for the headset that folds out on either side of the phone box's latch. The cradle is maked "OB" and is pretty well hidden. With batteries installed, the phones on their spring loaded cradles (which does the same thing as pushing the white button) and one of the patch cables connecting the two phones, I was able to ring both phones "OK" from the other and talk to myself putting one headset up to each ear. Not the best test but best I could do at the moment. All seems well and I am very happy with this unit. Got CTD's usual quick delivery too.

I was worried from the reviews that I might end up with a dud, but both work perfectly. Dated 1958 and the other 1983
1.0 Rating 1/2 Bad - 3/26/2010Original German Field Phones Requires D Batteries Bakelite Case Set of Two Phones1.0000
Reviewer: Kevin
I ordered 2, one worked and one didn't. Called customer service and had to send both back. Received two different ones same deal one worked and one didn't. If you want a working pair order four, and send the crappy ones back. I gave up on the whole thing. It just seemed like too much work.
