Hi,
I am looking for a LCR dialer similar to the Orchid V4 which can do programmable time-dependant routing. eg Switch between 18185 daytime and BT evenings & weekends.

Orchid don't stock the V4 any more and their new one has no clock :-(


Any ideas?

thanks.

    I use this phone as it got 40 name and number memory, I just program the name + the word weekend or name + evening etc' than I program the number say for example 1899012345678.

    40 names is enough for me (as I am of the older type jent and only got 5 friends last time I counted ) but you can find phones with a bigger phone book if you look in Google/Argos/ebay etc'

  • Is the use of Dialers now a lost art or are there still any suppliers of this technology?

    I know people on this forum have kept the programming alive BUT if you can't get a dialer what next? It seems the ideal solution on a base BT line.

    I assume they've gone as the programming is too hard for most people to fathom and the preponderance of BT line wholesalers now so you lose CLI/CPS options.

    Thanks.
