I need to fiddle with some u-Law encoded numbers (12-bit, 8000/sec,
encoded into 8-bit). This is supposed to be standard phone company
stuff. I have a couple of FINE, FINE references that describe the
stuff and promptly give examples that have the sign switched from each
other. Could someone please give me some examples (and tell me which
sign value is correct for positive values after they are encoded). I
just want to write a program that generates the lookup tables and I'd
like to get it correct to avoid any distortion.  Also, if you happen
to be in "that sort of mood," could you drop some stuff on A-law,
also?


Thanks,
