Now that Tones has been split up into Tones and ToneSamples - it should be possible to add a BuildSrc method that extracts the tones for easier analysis on the desktop.

The UK dial tone combines 350 Hz and 450 Hz tones creating a 100 Hz beat frequency.

In the United Kingdom, the busy tone is a single 400Hz tone with equal 0.4 s (technically: 0.375 s) on/off periods. The current 400Hz/375ms tone was adopted in the mid to late 1960s and replaced the older busy tone, which was the same 400 Hz signal but at half the interruption rate (i.e. 0.75 s on, 0.75 s off).
