As long as it picks up the right microphone, yes it is. Click a link, enter a passcode and you're in basically.

I don't even have to enter the passcode. Zoom is on my Tablet - open the e-mail, click the link and I'm in. Just have to make sure my earbud/mic is plugged in properly.

I did it on my flip phone with the big buttons.

Hahah! I don’t have a computer or tablet, but I do have an iPhone . I don’t have a microphone? Probably could find ear buds but the new phones no longer have a headphone jack . I think they issued me an adapter upon purchase that I’ve surely lost 

 

 

My fiancé’s dad has a jitterbug phone with big buttons and I’m insanely jealous

I've got a pair of Bluetooth earbuds with built in mic for my Galaxy phone - might have to look into that for your I-Phone. Or put the phone in speaker-mode and use the built-in mic.

I did the first zoom call with my iPhone, and didn't use any ear buds.  Worked fine, same as a FaceTime call.  The iPhone has a speaker and a microphone.  If you want earbuds that plug into the firewire jack, they sell them.

Same for me. 
 

We’re in the mountains of NC for the week and didn’t have a signal to join this time. 
 

Mrs Mike sent me down the mountain to go shopping so I thought I’d check in. ?

I live right next to a cell tower, and get no LTE service, lol.  My new phone has the 5G alien gamma rays feature and comes in faster than my WiFi, even while wearing a tin foil hat.  Go figure.

I like the tablet for two reasons.

1: Larger screen - the tablet is an 8", the phone a 4".

2: Faster - even though the phone has 5G, the home network on a cable modem is way faster.

 

I'd go with the computer (24" screen), but I don't have a camera or mic for it...

I use my new laptop.  It has all the things.

My netbook does too - but it refuses to connect to the home network for some reason. It's not the Wi-Fi, cause it connects everywhere else.

@J Francho’s tin foil hat blocks your signal

That's gotta be a heck of hat - he's in NY, I'm in MN.

 

John, you gotta wear it next time.

You have to be here more often to catch these things, Paul.

[Boomstick]

It's getting to that time again. Any input what day works the best aside from Wednesdays?

[MN Fisher]

Take your pick - I'm free any evening.

[TcRoc]

If u can avoid Tuesdays, if not I’ll catch next round  

[kingmotorboat]

I usually work till 6 central and off on Wednesday and Sunday. So I’m good most days

[MGF]

I guess any night works this time of year.

[Boomstick]

Alright, how does Thursday at 8pm work for everybody?
