Well, no one answered these questions. It's very frustrating when I have a question that is so interesting to me and I am not able to find answers to it. So please answer my questions. I am interested in EDTN because its one of the types of telephone audio devices no one talks about and it is used in Switzerland by those with sensorineural deafness. I associate Switzerland with frightening-yet-enjoyable high-technology magnetic telecommunications. I don't know why, I just do. Sensorineural-deafness is accompanied by a false-perception of a high-pitched sine-wave tone resembling the "whine" of a CRT. Sensorineural-deafness is caused by damage to the acoustic nerves responsible for translating mechanical vibrations in the cochlear hairs to neural impulses that can be detected by the brain. Since sensorineural deafness involves acoustic-nerve-damage and the damage nerves are hyper-excitable, they send crazy signals to the auditory cortex interpreted as sounding similar to a CRT monitor. This is false auditory perception is called tinnitus. Anyways, the EDT/EDTN uses audio signals to communicate between one EDT/EDTN device and another EDT/EDTN device. Just like one PC can communicate with another PC half-way around the world using audio- frequency signals via dial-up modems. I've never actually listened to EDT/EDTN but I think I'll enjoy it. I've listened to American TDD tones by dialing local TDD numbers Dial 1-800-543-1586 and you'll hear the American TDD tones I am talking about. This is an example of a TDD number used in the United States. I want to hear the Swiss-equivalent of TDD. Where can I find EDT/EDTN numbers? Please give me some EDT/EDTN numbers. If that's not possible, please steer me to a website that contains high-quality recordings of the sounds generated by EDT/EDTN devices along with the international negotiation tones I would get when dialing from USA to Switzerland. High-quality = the sample-rate must be at least 44.1 KHz and the bit- resolution must be at least 16-bit and the recording must be an uncompressed linear-PCM wave file.
