Keith, Kevin is thinking you are using the wrong switch. You need a
momentary switch like the old starter buttons; the moment you push-
it makes contact, the moment you release- it loses contact. If the
doorbell button you are using now clicks when pushed, it may unclick
when pushed the second time. That would be a POPO switch

I am looking for a door bell chime that rings like the NewMoon
trailer in the LongLong Trailer movie.
