UK Other Licensed Operator's Tones and Announcements
Many of the
following files were donated to this site by a mysterious visitor named
'Twilight Isotope'. Twilight suggested that I ought to have some 'Cable
and Wireless' tones and announcements. I
replied that if Twilight could record some then I would use them.
Fortunately Twilight took me up on my generous offer and promptly produced
the selection below (marked *). Many thanks Twilight! I have since added
other tones and announcements of my own.
