will my vintage rotary phone work with cox digital phone system ?

i hadn't thought of that .. hmmm , thank you .

a friend with one says it works ,  but maybe he can only call out , not hear incoming call . 

cox  probably doesn't care about folks with old rotary dial phones ..thanks 

From what I remember about rotary phones on the POTS, rotary phones ran on DC power from a switch house.  That's why they'd still work during power outages.

I'm sure there are tone-converters on the market to connect a rotary phone nowadays.  Will you search for something?

yes , ok . now i'm beyond curious ... i'll have to get to the bottom of this ,

and actually , my friend with the " working " rotary phone , has it connected to the wall 

recept  with the standard  phone cord line and end jacks .
