Hanging by a wire

And speaking of vintage telephones...


The best VoIP service
[Posted Wednesday, May 20, 2026 5/20/26 1:20 pm]

To actually use my vintage phones, I use VoIP service from a great company in Canada called VoIP.ms to provide my landline.


A small unit called an ATA (which stands for Analog Telephone Adapter) connects to the Internet and makes dial tone and ringing for my landline phone.

These little boxes are helping keep the telephones of the past alive!


My vintage landline phone
[Posted Wednesday, May 20, 2026 5/20/26 10:16 am]

I love vintage electronics from the 60s and 70s, especially telephones.


This is the phone currently connected to my working landline, a pristine 1964 Western Electric 500 set. These phones were built to last! In the 60s, everyone had a phone just like this in their house.

I found this on eBay, they have tons of great old telephone stuff!

More of my vintage phones in future posts.
