- Okay, this may be stupid, but I must ask!
-
- Why does a TTY/TDD make noise everytime you hit the keys? Now this is a
- generalization, but most people that use a TTY/TDD are deaf (MOST! I said
- MOST!) so why have the noise?
-
- I know that they are not like a ascii modem, but I turn off the sound on
- my modem all they time....so why? I don't get it? Does it have to do
- with the way they connect?
-
- Thanks:)
