I've read your question several times and don't really understand what
you're asking?  What signal are you trying to send and receive?  From the
subject I must guess you want to interact with the phone somehow, but I'm
not exactly sure what you're asking.  (You're right though, that the
"signal" module has nothing to do with telephones.)

On Windows, the standard way to interact with telephony systems is via the
TAPI interfaces  (
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms734273%28v=vs.85%29.aspx) , which
I guess should be directly usable in Python via at least PyWin32 or some
other means.  It's also possible that a Python specific wrapper exists,
although a quick google hasn't turned up anything obvious.

 Hope that helps...

Walter
