looking for SFX for early cell/mobile phone from the 80s

[dvlasak]

I come seeking the wisdom of the all knowing fellow Booth Dwellers -

I am looking for a ring tone SFX for the early cell/mobile phone
that was like holding up a brick to your ear. I can find lots of
current SFX, but nothing that makes me remember that old phone, not
that I can tell you what the ring sounded like any more! Any guidance
to the correct "hiding" spot would be appreciated!

Thanks,
Dennis

www.findsounds.com shows 200 hits if you search for "cell phone ring". Off the top of my head I'm not sure what those old bricks sounded like either, but this one seems right:

Maybe watch some Miami Vice or a movie like Wall Street for an accurate idea?

Saved by the bell.... Zack had a phone at school before people even knew to outlaw them there....
