The only problem I have with OnStar is that if you call someplace that has an automated system you're f(_)cked. There's NO way to enter numbers. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

You can get a small push button tone dial unit at Radio Shack. Hold it near the mike and dial the number you need. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Good idea, but wish there was a slide out key pad like in the 745. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Here are the SKUs of Radio Shacks items:
SKU/Catalog # Model Description 43-139 43-141 43-142 43-143 43-144 43-145 Pocket Tone DIaler 43-145A Pocket Tone DIaler 43-146 43-165 43-182 43-192

You might do a web search for a better unit. I have seen some very small ones used by Ham operators on old radios that didn"t have tone pad built in.
