   I'm devlopping a little databank program for the atari st and need the frequecy
   of the dial tones and eventually the waveform.

Dial tone is 350Hz and 440Hz sine waves together, at equal amplitudes

(This is the so-called precise dial tone. If you're generating a dial
tone, this is the way to do it. Many chips that detect dial tone simply
look for energy in a broad band of frequencies : for example, the 
Sierra Semi 2400 baud modem looks in 300 - 660 Hz, center 480 Hz)
