I created the one we use (800hz tone for three seconds) using some tone generator and sound recorder software. That frequency seems to work well to cut through our shop noise. I'll send the .wav off line. Otherwise I have downloaded many other sounds form various web sites. The Fred Flintstone whistle & "yaba daba doo" worked well for shift end but got axed because the plant manager had no sense of humor.
One caution on the PC....turn off all other inputs to the soundcard (like form CD) or else some with music on the main menu (in autoplay mode) will sound in the shop. Also watchout for any software that plays a sound on alerts and disable it on that PC.
