   Hello Kurt.   
      
      
      
    DW> Now, if you had a contraption that would make the touch tone sounds (my   
    DW> uncle had one), you could use a rotary phone by punching the number   
    DW> into the contraption, picking up the receiver, putting the contraptions   
    DW> speaker next to the receiver mic, and then hit the button that told the   
    DW> contraption to send the touch tones. So long, that is, as your line   
    DW> supported touch tone dialing.   
      
    KW> Change the crystal on the contraption, and suddenly your little    
    KW> dialer box is sending 2600hz tones... :)   
      
   Umm... I seem to remember a gizmo called a RedBox or something like that, that   
   was used to trick pay phones by imitating the sound of various coin   
   denominations being inserted. But that's been decades ago and I might be   
   thinking of something else, but it was illegal as all get-out.   
      
   Best regards,   
   Marc
