I wonder does rotary dial phones still work on land lines?

[Vendome]

Yes.

Yes, you can use them on today’s phone system! Legacy system.

Here’s the batphone being dialed to Commissioner Gordon!

I wonder does rotary dial phones still work on land lines?

Yes, they do. I have a rotary phone still in use in my house and one in my garage. I also have push-button phones in each building. I also have DSL internet access on those same lines.

If I am not mistaken, the earliest phones will still work on today's systems. The reason is that no change-out of technology could take place simultaneously everywhere. Device have to be backward compatible. The old "land-line" system will last until it is finally scrapped someday in the far distant future.

Miraculously, new technology continues to function in the old system.

I still see rotary phones occasionally in elderly peoples houses. Saw one a few days ago.
