Heard an epic vintage #telecom story today: At the time we sent a lot of #faxes from Czechia to Britian and the country code was 044, and one day no faxes were going through. This was in the days of pulse dialing still, it was a very frustrating day, I went home. One of the other employees called the phone company. The phone company explained the number four wasn't working that day, it would be fixed soon. #analog #pulsedial #dialing #rotary #rotarydial

@cvvhrn I love it! Here is our wall phone in our kitchen. It's rotary, but it's on a VOIP line and IT WORKS!!!

Justine Haupt actually built a #cellPhone with a physical rotary dial! Itβs an open-source design. She sold a kit with most of the parts, and is taking preorders for a new, improved version (with physical bell!).
