Re: Question about a Telephone of mine...I want to fix it.

Everything Tom said plus; since you say that you sound faint to other people I'm assuming that they don't to you. You could try just swapping the mic from the other phone. Unscrew the mouth pieces and swap the buttons and see if the problem follows.

Now this may be an old WWII wives tale and I remember it as a 13 YO ham radio operator, if the mic seems to be the problem take it out and gently tap it on the table. The carbon granules sometime pack and have to be loosened. YMMV

It looks like you can still buy the microphone button. This site claims to have the it.
