Most landline phones (not cordless ones) still support pulse dialling, which means that you can dial any number just by using the receiver hook (you know, the button that gets pushed down when you hang up the phone). Because of the fact that phones used to measure the amount of pulses in order to dial a number, all you have to do is to use the receiver hook to create these "pulses". For example of you wanted to dial the number 615, you would press the receiver hook 6 times in rapid succession, then wait and push it once, then wait again and press it 5 times in rapid succession, and so on until you have dialled the number you desire.
