I managed to find a 12vdc source that was used to run the buzzer. I thought that this was perfect, I would just use a 12V relay to act as a switch for a 24vdc source that I have available and the horn would sound when the phone is ringing - easy. The problem is that the 12Vdc source inside the phone lacks the current

How about a 12v reed relay? The coil current is only about 12ma and the contacts should easily handle your horn.

did you not see the flag where I pointed the lower arrow ?
don't you see the flags for other members as well like mine ??
I see your flag for the USA
Yes, but does not show on my screen.
No, I can't see anybody's flags.
Perhaps I need to update java script?

All I see is; member name, status, and Avatar.

Yes, I'm on an android.
I'm seldom on a home computer.

ahhh that probably explains it ;)
I don't log on to the forum from my phone too often, so cant remember what is and isn't shown

no probs ... just one of the benefits of full access via a computer :)

Yes, true.
Everything else works fine on my phone.
Anyway, I hope you'll excuse my asking where a member is located, from time to time.
PS: It also doesn't show under their profile.

Those horns were controlled through a separate 24volt power supply.
