My new bedtime reading has arrived…

In the UK, AC13 telephone signalling used pulses of 2280Hz to represent the digits of a dialled phone number, call progress state etc.

This training document from 1983 was pretty late in the lifespan of in-band signalling like this, which had been around for 20+ years by this point.

It’ll be fun reading this from a “what would it do if I poked $thing at $time” point of view
