Hi Tim,

There was a bit of discussion off list, and yes 7.0486 is the dial
frequency for 1600/1800Hz tones

Because I'm sending this from my phone, I can't seem to copy a frequency
table that was in the off list discussion!  Gerard, could you please post
that into this thread? (if & when you get a chance)
