Default What is it? Set 136

794: is a "record" recorder. It was used to create I believe 78 rpm
albums. These were quite the rage.

796: in its current configuration thats a "line cord" for a RJ-14 or
RJ-25 jack. Better known as a telephone cord. Because it does NOT have
only 2 wires it would not typically be used with an RJ-11 jack, though
it could be. IF you only were interested in the "1st line" The wiring
is inside to out. Meaning the inner two wires would be line 1 (
Red/green ) and the outer two would be "line 2" (yellow/black.).
ORINGALLY yellow was a power line for the lighting circuitry on the
"princess" style phones with the black providing the ground as the
"dialtone" on a landline phone is -48vdc.

798: has all the "looks" of a barlow knife. The rounded hammer head
suggests a shaping usage.
