What it sounds like when speaking I dont know but will find out later.
I will keep you up to date.
Thank you again.

AEP =Automatica Electrica Portuguesa . It was a Portuguese subsidiary set up around 1930 by the then Automatic Telephone Manufacturing Company of Strowger Works, Edge Lane in Liverpool. ATM later became ATE (Automatic Telephone & Electric Ltd) until taken over by Plessey in the early 1960's. They manufactured 300 type Telephones similar to the GPO's
Telephone No 332 . They later produced telephones of the GPO's 700 type. When I was with Plessey Communication Systems in late 1970's there were often AEP 3XX and 7XX type telephones on PAXes. So there is a 99% chance the circuit is that of a GPO Telephone 332.
