Understanding the tones you hear

In many countries the ringing tone, which is a single long signal repeated at regular intervals, sounds much like our engaged tone. The
overseas engaged tone often is a short signal repeated rapidly.

                           A double ring, repeated regularly (same as Namibian ring tone)

       A

                            Equal length on/off tones (same as Namibian engaged tone)

       B

                            Long equal on/off tones (slower than Namibian engaged tone)
          C

                            Short equal on/off tones (faster than Namibian engaged tone)

       D

                           Tones separated by longer pauses.

       E

                            Long tones separated by shorter pauses.
