Paging

Man. back in the day where you got these big ass catalogs and would look at all of the cool crap you had no way to afford. A family member was into all kinds of stuff like this. They had a wrist watch that you could program phone numbers into and use it as a phone book.. Because you know, phones work off tones. You would just select a name and hold the watch near the receiver and it would dial for you. Cool shit when it was back in the 1990's.

From the post: "Hi. My name is Cabel. And I’ve probably got the neatest job in the whole world.

I wear many hats. But here on my personal blog, I get to write about the things I really care about, just for you. And from the fact that you’re reading this blog at all, I think you may be a lot like me."

Good question. Ive not really done much to tinker with the frequency side of things. Maybe trying other firmware's would be worth a shot.
