SITOR idling pattern
I thought I'd throw this out there - it's an interesting little educational file, though not at all pleasant to listen to. I am, howwever, serious about the warning. If you're wearing headphones, please, please, turn the volume down a bit first. Should we edit it to provide a quieter version?

 * This reminds me of an idea I had a while back for a featured sound, a morse code of "Wikipedia - The Free Encyclopedia". Alas, I don't have a transmitter. As for this, are you sure it's right? There seems like a ton of background noise.  S ven M anguard   Wha?  01:02, 7 April 2011 (UTC)
 * I believe the background noise is the signal. I'm sure I've heard something liek this on TV shows about the coast guard. As I understand it, this is basically the equivalent to those old modem signals. Which would be a fantastic featured sound. I wonder if we can still get a signon with a low-baud modem to record?
