Abstract
The Bell System Speakerphone provides hands-free telephony. It permits the telephone customer to receive over a loudspeaker and to transmit over a microphone located a convenient distance away. The techniques and components employed in the design of the Speakerphone are described. A survey of customer reactions to this type of telephone set indicates that 90 per cent are fairly or entirely satisfied with its performance.
