  Autovon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Autovon, the Automatic Voice Network, was an American military phone system built to survive nuclear attacks.
AUTOVON was first built in the United States, but spread to England, Asia, the Middle East, and Panama.
AUTOVON used its own set of trunk lines which used a combination of their own lines, and other lines operated by ATandT and smaller non-bell companies, connected to exchanges located far from other civilian or military targets.

 Autovon
Autovon used its own set of trunk lines which were buried 35 feet underground in concrete conduits, connected to exchanges located far from other civilian or military targets.
In the US the conduits were built by AT&T, who also used them to carry about 1/3rd of all civilian long-distance lines as well, as they were much bigger than the military needed.
Local base switches would be connected to a few Autovon lines, which the user would access by dialing 8 (or in some cases, 88) as the first digit.

 Autovon: The DoD Phone Company
Autovon had its beginnings with the Army's Switch Communications Automatic Network (SCAN), a three-switch system developed for their own use.
When Autovon is saturated with calls, if the support- ing trunklines are tied up, selected users with higher precedence will get their calls through by using MLPP.
One of the minor phenomena of Autovon and DSN is the so called high and dry connections.

The Agency argues that the proposals are negotiable only at the election of the Agency because AUTOVON access concerns the technology of performing work within the meaning of section 7106(b)(1) of the Statute.
The Union also argues that Proposal 2 is consistent with the primary purpose of the AUTOVON system--rapid worldwide telephone communications for high priority users--because it requires the Union to keep its access to the system "discriminate and for legitimate labor-management purposes."

The tones were not designed for the Autovon system, but were indeed used by it.
Among those less aware of the technical aspects of the Autovon network it was always commonly thought that priority preemption was very common, but in fact is was exceedingly rare.
Even a SAC base might have had only one or two lines capable of using preemption, and then only by the three or four highest ranking operations officers (which would exclude, for example, the base commander but might include a bomber wing commander).
