It is possible to dial DTMF from a Model 100, with a little help. My wife has a rotary phone, and bought a little line-powered box that translates pulses into Touch Tones. I think she paid about $20 for it from a guy in Australia who makes them. Seems to work well.

Not too terribly difficult; there are various hardware 'modems' (e.g. Lantronix UDS-10) that can often be found used for around $30, or there are a number of software apps that run on (through) another computer (e.g. TCPSER). Have fun researching! m On Thu, Oct 6, 2022 at 7:54 PM Will Senn
