Not all Space Phone remotes are ultrasonic, I think just the earliest ones were, according to another post I saw somewhere around here. Also, I just purchased an infrared Space Phone remote, remanufactured, in original Zenith box for 7 bucks. It is from around 1981 according to an ad I saw. I don't normally gather infrared remotes, but this one is unique and cheap enough.

Finally, a question: how could anyone smash a transducer without completely destroying the remote?

I think it was kids poking them out, couldnt happen by accident,
saw quite a few. Usually kids put money & other thin
object through the slots of TV's. Can be destructive beasts, I know
I had 2 of em. And no antenna rod was safe with the little dears
around..........

May have been Spacephone with IR just dont remember them.
I bought a SM1971P new & it had spacephone & ultra remote.
Awesome set, pecan wood cabinet, comb filter etc. Sold it a few yrs later & it was running still a few yrs ago til they junked it.
