As to our hardware: the valve/tube audio oscillator could provide watts of output. I can't remember if we had to add a transformer eg speaker transformer in reverse. The venue was a government department training school. That particular lecture room was adjacent to the site technical equipment room and projection booth. The equipment room housed a couple of racks of comms, telephone and PA and time-announcer/bell ringer etc. Wasn't a problem to park the large osc in there. The single pair jumper wire [used for interconnecting the racks via tag blocks ie mdf, idf etc] was noticable running between the top of the projection window frame and the clock. It was an old building and pretty scruffy looking which helped with the lack of extra camo.

I always wondered just how
it was done, and the size of the hardware that would be required. Of
course today it's fairly trivial to do in a small package, but back
then, I'm not so sure.

All this talk of line frequency reminds me of when we attached a 'powerful'
audio sig gen to the lecture room clock back in 1968. Got us 10 mins less
boredom.
