Quindar tones

July 23, 2017

Quindar tones;

just a beep to

start and a beep

to finish.

A signal that​​ 

communication

will now begin

and another​​ tone

nearly like it

to say that​​ 

communication

has now ended

and the other​​ 

can begin to speak

one listening

until the tone

which frees them

to respond; to begin

communicating

a way of organizing

discussion; no talking over

the other

just waiting for​​ the​​ tone

no matter how distant

no matter how foreign

no matter how urgent.
