Dennis said: This was back when the cell phones were analog. ////// Dennis I still use an analog cell phone. I have a contract originated in 1988 that gives me analog cellular service for about $8.00 a month. If I upgrade to digital I lose that contract. So I am holding out a long as I can. I've received several letters over the past 5 years from my cellular provider saying that the analog service is about to be terminated. The latest one gave me a deadline of February 18, 2008. Of interest is that my analog phone will not work within a mile of our AM transmitter site. It apparently suffers from RF overload. My coworkers digital phones don't have a problem with the RF even in the near field.
