   Yes, it does. I also didn't know that the systems were
different, but what Andy described does not exist in the US.
We have basic telephone lines, first installed by Al Bell.
And we now have cellphones, which require transmission
towers. About 1/3 of the US still doesn't even have cell
access.

   I'm not sure, but I think Micky is in the US. Is so then
he cannot receive texts over his landline He can only
receive audio.
