Re: What About Rotary Phones??

said by KA3SGM See Profile :

I have quite a few phones that date back to the WWII era, and yes I would not mind paying any additional cost(within reason) to keep them working for another 60 years.

Maybe it's a Bell System thing, but no one makes telephones like Western Electric did.
thats because they where rentals from the bell system. Ma Bell wanted something that they wouldnt have to replace or service but still charge a lease on and make lots of profit. the result was phones made from used tank armor....
