(other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or 
paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the 
Registrant in the successful defense of any such action, suit or

been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of 
appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification 
by it against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be 
governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Pursuant to the requirement of the Securities Act of 1933, the

Attn:  Joseph J. Murphy

RE:  SEC Registration on Form S-8

Dear Mr. Murphy:

I am counsel for DCI Telecommunications, Inc., a Colorado Corporation
(the "Company") in connection with its proposed public offering under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act") under Form S-8, of 157,000
shares of its $.0001 par value common stock which are to be issued in
payment of certain services rendered pursuant to invoices and/or statements
from Mark C. Foster for consulting and legal services, and John Adams, Daniel
Murphy, Larry Shatsoff, Grace P. Murphy and Robert Muller for services as
employees, James P. Lapin and John E. Moye for Attorney's fees.  Such
offering shall be made by filing of a Registration Statement under Form S-8
as to which this opinion is a part, to be filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the "Commission").

In connection with the rendering this opinion as set forth below, I have
reviewed and examined the originals or copies identified as follows:

(1)  Articles of Incorporation of the Company, as restated and amended, as
filed with the Secretary of State of Colorado on February 4, 1985.

(2)  Bylaws of the Company and Resolution of the Board of Directors adopted
September 12, 1996 authorizing the issuance of Common Shares in payment of
services rendered.

(3)  Invoices from Mark C. Foster and statements for amounts owed to John
Adams, Daniel Murphy, Larry Shatsoff, Grace P. Murphy and Robert Muller for
services as employees and owed to James P. Lapin and John E. Moye for
Attorney's fees.

(4)  The Form S-8 dated September 12, 1996 as filed with the Commission.

<PAGE>

I have examined such other documents and records provided to me by the
Company, instruments and certificates of public officials, officers and
representatives of the Company, and made such investigations as deemed
necessary or appropriate under the circumstances.  In connection with
rendering this opinion, I have reviewed such statutes and judicial
precedents as deemed relevant and necessary.  In the examination, I have
assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity of natural
persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted as originals, the
conformity with the original documents of all documents submitted as copies,
and the authenticity of the originals of such copies.  It is further assumed
that the recipients of shares of the Common Stock under the respective
agreements will have paid or earned the consideration required under the
terms of such agreement prior to the issuance of such stock.

Based upon the foregoing and in reliance thereon, it is my opinion that,
subject to the limitations set forth herein, the One Hundred Fifty-five
Thousand Shares (155,000) of Common Stock will, upon issuance and delivery
in accordance with the terms of the service agreements covered by such
Registration Statement, be duly and validly authorized, legally issued,
fully paid and nonassessable and without restrictions on said shares.  This
opinion is expressly limited in scope to the shares enumerated herein and
in the Registration Statement and does not cover subsequent issuance of
shares to be made in the future pursuant to the subject agreements, if any,
pertaining to services to be performed in the future.  Such transactions
are required to be included in either a new registration statement or a
post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement including updated
opinions concerning the validity of issuance of such shares.

This opinion is limited to the laws of the state of Colorado, in particular
the Colorado Corporation Law of Colorado, and no opinion is expressed with
respect to the laws of any other state or jurisdiction.  I consent to the
filing of this opinion with the commission as an exhibit to the Form S-8
filed dated September 12, 1996.

This opinion is not to be used, circulated, quoted or otherwise refereed to
for any other purpose with my prior written consent.  This opinion is based
upon my knowledge of the law and facts of the date hereof.  I assume no
obligation to communicate with you concerning any matter which may come to
my attention after the date hereof.

						Very truly yours,

Dear Mr. Murphy:
