Pine phone Junior, message phone ?

[bcnaz]

I only had 'company pagers' ... I hated them, could be working on a roof, or driving the highway, ... the caller always wanted an immediate response.
Later I bought an operator assist radio phone, I kinda liked that. $28. a month if I did not have out of area roaming charges.
The handheld walkie talkie had a 60 - 80 mile range, with the optional booster in the truck, and sitting on a hill - over 200 miles was "possible" ...
Days long gone....
