Ok, Now you're really pissed.
|
||
|
|
The Neighborhood Lamer has gone one step too far this time.
|
||
|
|
It's time for the Busy Box.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1) What is The Busy Box?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The Busy Box is the Simplest Box ever created. It is attached to the
|
||
|
|
outside of the person's house, in their telephone box. It Makes it So that
|
||
|
|
When any Fone inside That house is Picked up, No dial Tone is heard, and
|
||
|
|
no Calls can be Received, or Sent. This is Good for Lame BBS's as They Tend
|
||
|
|
not to call out much, and it will remain Undetected for a longer Period of
|
||
|
|
Time.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2) Sounds Great! What do I need?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A) One Phone Cord - 5 Inches or so
|
||
|
|
B) Alligator Clips (Optional)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
3) Wow! That's it? Tell me More! How do I set It Up?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Well, Take your phone cord, and remove the Outer insulation. Now you
|
||
|
|
should have 4 wires inside of it, Red, Green, Black, And Yellow. All you need
|
||
|
|
for most things are Green and Red, so save those. Take either the Black or The
|
||
|
|
Yellow and strip about 3 Inches with a wire stripper or a Knife. Now cut off 3
|
||
|
|
inches of Uninsulated wire and, voila, you have a really thin wire. Now, take
|
||
|
|
this wire, and go to your neighbors back yard. Look for Their Power Box, Near
|
||
|
|
it should be a small grey (or beige, or some ugly color) box with te
|
||
|
|
Bell on it. Open this up (it should come right off, if not, use a 7/15 Hex
|
||
|
|
Driver) Now inside you should find four more pegs. Look for the Pegs with
|
||
|
|
a Green or Red wire coming out of them. If you have a Beige Box, hook it
|
||
|
|
up to Make sure there Is a Dial Tone. If therre is, Tie one end of your small
|
||
|
|
wire to the peg with the Green Wire coming out of it, and another to the one
|
||
|
|
with the Red coming out of it. Now use your beige box on it again, there should
|
||
|
|
be no dial tone, and pressing buttons should be ineffective. Congratulations,
|
||
|
|
you've disabled their fone line.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Something you might want to try is to make the small wire longer, and stuff
|
||
|
|
it in to the back of the box where there is a jungle of wires, so it will
|
||
|
|
be more unnoticable. The more discreet, the better.
