Thread Name: Telephones--what are the notes???
Subject: RE: Telephones--what are the notes???
Well, if I'm reading this right, the letter keys do not correspond to the musical notes A,B,C,D, but are merely an extra row of buttons found on special phones. In fact the touch-tones are not pure notes of any key, but a few of them offer a rough approximation by which one can play little off-key tunes. My dial tone, however, is real close to a pure F.
