  10.2 It should be possible to switch off the loudspeaker without affecting the audio output of the telephone handset, if provided.

  10.3 In the transmit condition during simplex operation, the output of the receiver should be muted.

  10.4 In the transmit condition during duplex operation, only the telephone handset should be in circuit. Care should be taken to prevent any electrical or acoustic feedback, which could cause singing.
