Talk:pulse dialing

There is also a rotary-dial phone that's even older. And what about a hand-crank phone? --Stranger 20:31, 26 August 2005 (UTC)


 * A hand-crack phone cannot dial. All calls have to be connected by an operator. -- Nick1nildram 09:00, 9 September 2005 (UTC)


 * But do you dial a touch-tone phone? No, you press numbers on a on a pad.  I know, someone addressed this already.  (For other readers, see dial.)  But does someone know someone who used to use a hand-crank phone?  Maybe the word "dial" was used in this way too?  But I digress. ..
 * I think I was more concerned about the principle of using hand-crank as an adjective, like touch-tone and rotary-dial and pulse dialling. Cheers, --Stranger 15:31, 9 September 2005 (UTC)
