Abstract: A transcriber/telephone work station system wherein the transcriber is provided with a headset having a microphone and, by switching circuitry connected to a telephone box, the ring of an incoming call effects a switching, which, on the one hand, shuts off the transcriber, and, on the other hand, simultaneously connects the microphone headset to receive the incoming telephone call and enable the wearer of the headset to answer such call and/or redirect it. Upon the termination of the call, means are provided to reverse the switching and thereby disconnect the headset from the telephone box, and reactivate the transcriber.
