With this method we are constrained to picking +just one amplitude for the 3 different tones based on F_425 (busy, CW and +ringing) and likewise the same amplitude between the half-tone of keybeep and +the low tone of DTMF - but we are not seeking fully optimal tuning here, only a +band-aid fix to protect the developer-operator's hearing. + +The set of shell scripts contained in this directory was put together to +facilitate easier experimentation with different amplitudes, easier than +entering full AT@TONE commands manually. + +Amplitude selections being made for now: + +Keybeep-half and DTMF-low: -26 dBfs +DTMF-high: -24 dBfs +F_425 tones: -21 dBfs
