The original Viscount telephones are either Pulse dialling or MF dialling and earth recall. Later variants suffixed with the letters "AR" (Alternative Recall) supported Pulse dialling / MF dialling and Earth recall / Time break recall, which was configured by switches on the base of the telephone. The recall button is located under the handset, just above the dial label. The ringer volume is adjusted by a lever under the telephone. The dial label cover is easily removed by pushing the cover to the left. These telephones could be wall mounted with an optional wall bracket. The wall brackets colour matched the telephones. Made by STC Telecommunications Ltd they were introduced 1982 and production ceased in the early 1990's. Click here for the Viscount Brochure (1982) Telephone No. 9501 Key features:

Power Requirements Wall Bracket A plastic peg is supplied with the telephone, this should be fitted to the gravity switch plunger to prevent the handset from falling off the cradle when the instrument is wall-mounted. The peg is fitted by pushing the two prongs into the holes in the plunger and snapping of the excess lug. Fitted to the wall with three screws. To attach the phone - locate the top of the phone to the two tabs at the top of the bracket and then lower the bottom edge. The bottom edge of the phone locates on two clips at the bottom of the bracket. To remove the phone - the bottom of the bracket is squeezed together which releases the phone. The two lower arms are available to hang the handset on during a
call and not for wrapping the line cord around like many people did. Changing recall type
