1200 and 2200 hz I think (bell 202 FSK). You can certainly hear it. It is the same as the data burst during the emergency broadcast system. EAS system. Very annoying.
Ring frequency is normally 20 Hz 90 VAC. You can hear it but it is more of sensation to your ear that you feel than hear. You can certainly feel it if you put your fingers across the line.

If so, then it wouldn't make it through 2600hz bandpass filters would it? Or maybe it's audible, but so short you don't notice it? I'm fuzzy on this. I probably shouldn't ask. I don't need to know that much about POTS anymore. ------ Original Message ------ From: "Lewis Bergman" <lewis.berg...@gmail.com> To: af@afmug.com Sent: 11/9/2017 4:40:57 PM Subject: Re: [AFMUG] ATA CallerID question More info than anyone probably wants to know. I found this about the original question: Caller-ID Signaling According to Telcordia specifications, CND signaling starts as early as 300 mS after the first ring burst and ends at least 475 mS before the second ring burst From here: http://www.tech-faq.com/caller-id.html On Tue, Nov 7, 2017 at 9:29 PM Adam Moffett <dmmoff...@gmail.com> wrote: I did not know that tone contained modulated data.
