Thanks for your welcome Dave! I'm still trawling through all the posts - fascinating website, with all sorts of info. I only stumbled in here looking for information about some 1A2 phones that I have (they are not common in the UK, and information is quite scarce over here).
Thanks again,
John

Originally posted by Arthur P. Bloom: European pulse dialing was the exact opposite. When I was in New Zealand a few years ago I picked up a few older rotary phones. They use dials that went from 9 up to 0, only the 5 and the 0 sent the same number of pulses as in North America. As I understand it, it was to get around copyright issues with the dials and strowger switches. Consequently, in New Zealand you commonly dial "1" to get an outside line from a PBX, on a rotary phone you would have been sending 9 pulses. this system may have been used elsewhere but was not commonplace around the world.
