By the way, I'm posting this message with the phone off the hook!              I discovered that the switches for Concord Telephone Exchange Inc. in Farragut       Tn. were ATT/Philp Tel5ess-PBX Host. What is that?Is it 5ESS mixed with PBX?       What is that off hook tone Called? It was a steady Medium pitch sound. I       though the off hook tone        for PBX changes pitches. The off hook tone did wind up and stayed at a medium       pitch sound that went like a horn at the Concord Telephone Exchange Inc. in       Farragut Tn. What kind of off hook tone is that?              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
