I still have several candlesticks and a wall phone. These can be made to work if I recall correctly you need what is known as a network to make it FCC approved. It will work without but the sound wont be good. In a few years I have been told that the phone companies wont support dial phones. When this happens you will be able to answer but not dial out on it. Unless you do major surgery and put buttons on the dial destroying the orginality. This company in particular http://www.phonecoinc.com/ has been around a long time and she used to be free with the advice. Dave
