==Automated Coin Toll System== Debuted in [[Phoenix, Arizona]] in 1977, the ''Automated Coin Toll System'' (ACTS) was an addition to TSPS which provided an automated way to perform charge advisory and toll collection of coin paid calls, reducing the need for operator involvement. The ACTS sub-system handled the automated voice announcements, e.g. "Please deposit five cents for the next three minutes" (initially voiced by [[Jane Barbe]], and later [[Pat Fleet]]), and worked with TSPS for coin deposit (start of call) and coin collection/coin return (at end of call).<ref>{{cite web |title=Automated Coin Toll System (ACTS) |url=https://telephoneworld.org/pay-telephones/acts-automated-coin-toll-service/}}</ref>
