Here'z a true story that shows how ignorant cordless fone users are:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I was talking to my friend on the phone. I was also listening to my
|
||
|
|
scanner at the same time. Since I have all the cordless phone
|
||
|
|
frequencies in my memory, the scanner was stopping at clear/close
|
||
|
|
cordless frequencies in use. So, basically, while I was talking to my
|
||
|
|
friend on the phone, someone else's conversation was playing over the
|
||
|
|
scanner.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
My friend and I weren't saying much, so he could hear the cordless
|
||
|
|
conversation through my phone. There are these 2 girls talking about
|
||
|
|
going to a club in So. Cal called the SAFARI BAR. All of a sudden my
|
||
|
|
friend goes "hold on!" and switches over to his other line. After the
|
||
|
|
short silence, I hear a ringing in my phone... apparently my friend was
|
||
|
|
calling someone on 3-way. A girl answers. My friend exclaims "Safari
|
||
|
|
Bar Rules!" and hangs up.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Aparently, one of the girls on the phone had given out her phone number,
|
||
|
|
and my friend had been listening. It was the girl on the scanner that
|
||
|
|
he had called. Aparently she had 3-way calling, so the call went
|
||
|
|
through.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
After congratulating my young friend on a good show, I turn up the
|
||
|
|
volume on the scanner. I hear the girl telling her friend what some guy
|
||
|
|
had just called and done (my friend). "Oh my god! How did he know what
|
||
|
|
we were talking about?!" they say. They go on tripping out, with
|
||
|
|
repeated "oh my god"s and "who was that guy?"....
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
As I listen further, the girls' conversation turns more serious. They
|
||
|
|
were REALLY trying to figure out how the hell some guy knew what they
|
||
|
|
were talking about. Eventually, they decide that the girl's
|
||
|
|
ex-boyfriend must have tapped the fone... after all, he was a little
|
||
|
|
strange, and perhaps jealous or something. He TAPPED her phone.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
After they decided what had just happened, they continued to talk. The
|
||
|
|
mood of their conversation had turned very serious and scared. The
|
||
|
|
topic of conversation now turned to confronting this guy (ex.
|
||
|
|
boyfriend). Anyhow, to make a long story short, they were really fucked
|
||
|
|
up by what had just happened. My friend had scared the hell out of
|
||
|
|
them. We ended up really depressed too... for we had caused the whole
|
||
|
|
upsetting event.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The girls were so ignorant, that they didn't even know how their
|
||
|
|
cordless fones worked. Like the general population, they took modern
|
||
|
|
technology for granted. To them, cordless phones were magic little
|
||
|
|
devices that allowed you to walk freely around the house. They did not
|
||
|
|
know that what they are really talking on are REPEATERS of sorts. The
|
||
|
|
transmission doesn't go in a straight line from the handset to the base.
|
||
|
|
Instead, it goes 200-500 feet in every direction.
|

Just thought I would tell my "little" story. Be careful with the
|
||
|
|
technology, folks.
