Right, that sound...and sometimes it wouldn't go through and you'd spend 45 minutes getting online! Then, you'd be right in the middle so of something on Ancestry and get disconnected, or be told to try later. Sometimes the dang circuits were so busy that you just couldn't log on.

Beepers, almost as bad as smoke signals!
