Actually 2600hz placed the phone ON-HOOK.  If is/was called SF or supervision
frequency. If you had a call attempt up (mainly a toll call) and you sent
a burst of SF, your local line would remain connected up, and the toll
trunk would go on-hook then off hook.  You could then dial back out on the
toll trunk using MF (similiar to DTMF of Touch-tone, but different)...
