1. You didn't say what State you are in, but Relay Service is a FREE Service for the Hearing Impaired. You also didn't say, but do you use strictly TTY or do you also use " Voice " or " VCO " ? The Relay Service number should be in your Local Phone Book (usually in the Front Section). If you live in TX you can just dial ( 711 ) and a Relay Operator will answer to help you . You don't need any "special " equipment to use Relay Service even if you do have DSL Phone Line as long as you have your Teletypewriter or another Type of Phone for the Deaf. Hope this helps you . Good Luck ! :-)
