Unsolicited Telephone Calls

Do others receive multiple daily unsolicited telephone calls?

I have 2 telephone numbers that are listed in the telephone book.
One is Fairpoint land line.
One is an internet phone line.

Seems both get about 6-12 telephone calls per day.
Seeking donations to fire, police, etc.
Others are from Amazon, Microsoft, Apple, credit card debt, extended warranty, etc.
All, of course, all are fake. Or donation pseudo scams.

Yes, I have a cell phone with almost zero solicitations.
Yes, I can just dump the listed land line and internet phone. For those who do not know what an internet phone is - it is usually bundled with your cable TV. Mine is not.
Yes, there is a Do Not Call procedure. Already utilized.

Just wondering if those who still have a listed phone number (not cell phone) get this many fake solicitations.
