	Apparently, some cable companies don't have a monitor feed
	(a monitor feed is used to relay cueing info to the local
	 stations along the network) and ESPN uses the audio tones
	to signal a cut-away for commericals.  This save the cost
	of another circuit.


	Thanks to all of those who responded.
