Hi, Barrett:
It looks like the Fleetwood Lab is simply a short-distance radio setup, with
headphones set to a particular frequency over which the instructor
broadcasts audio material. Students respond by pushing a button or speaking
through a handheld module -- you're right, it isn't clear from their Web
site as to how feedback works.
If you're in the market for a Tandberg system, we are getting rid of ours at
the end of this semester -- it's an IS-10 (not digital, but tape) complete
with instructor console, 21 cassette decks, headphones, etc. I'd be willing
to donate it to the Governor's School. Do you need furniture with that?

We have been planning to put in a new language lab. My principal told
me this AM that he had heard of a Fleetwood Language Lab that would cost
less than half what were had planned to spend on a Tandberg System.
I found the Fleetwood web site and cannot understand how it operates -
other than it is not computer-based. Has anyone had any experience with
this system?
Thanks,
