Summary: Let $G$ be a locally compact abelian Hausdorff topological group
which is non-compact and whose Pontryagin dual $\Gamma$ is
partially ordered. Let $\Gamma^{+}\subset\Gamma$ be the semigroup
of positive elements in $\Gamma$. The Hardy space $H^{2}(G)$ is
the closed subspace of $L^{2}(G)$ consisting of functions whose
Fourier transforms are supported on $\Gamma^{+}$. In this paper we
consider the $C^*$-algebra $C^{*}(\mathcal{T}(G)\cup
F(C(\dot{\Gamma^{+}})))$ generated by Toeplitz operators with
continuous symbols on $G$ which vanish at infinity and Fourier
multipliers with symbols which are continuous on one point
compactification of $\Gamma^{+}$ on the Hilbert--Hardy space\break
$H^{2}(G)$. We characterize the character space of this $C^*$-algebra
using a theorem of Power.
