Looks like we won't be bothering with a landline in our new home which is wired for residential phone service.

It's becoming a PIA yelling for each other because the place is pretty big.

Anyone know of an intercom system that uses RJ-11 jacks/plugs?
I don't want carrier line systems that could interfere with X-10.

Thought I'd check before Googling.

TIA

Actually, I guess I really mean to ask is there any downside to using existing telco wiring for an intercom.
I already have whole-house audio so that's not a concern with the 22 gauge (?) unshielded wiring.
Just need 2-way broadcast to all rooms; no zoning.

Why not use an RF solution?
You could be called while on the beach.

Or a surf hailer.

You could always buy a set of 4-5 wireless phones and just not hood to the outside world. We have a set of 4 that we picked up for like 60 bucks. We hardly use landlines anymore and more than not use the intercom feature that they have.

Hey BillyBob!

Good idea. They come with intercom.

Thanks

OK. My work here is done.
Now back to my previous hibernation
