HOW TO BUILD AND USE A MAGENTA BOX.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
First of all I named this the Magenta Box because all of the
|
||
|
fags that made boxes, whose only purpose is adding a hold
|
||
|
button to your phone, used all of the fucking colors. I can
|
||
|
afford a fucking piece of shit Radio Shack 2-line phone with
|
||
|
hold. A box's purpose is to fuck with the Telco., not to add
|
||
|
a fucking hold button to your phone. Anyway I will get on with
|
||
|
this.
|
||
|
|
||
|
PARTS LIST:
|
||
|
SPDT Miniature PC RELAY (about 9v, 500 ohm)
|
||
|

|
||
|

|
||
|
1 meg resistor
|
||
|
.01 uF capacitor
|
||
|
555 timer chip
|
||
|
2 diodes (1N914)
|
||
|
10 K resistor
|
||
|
1 K resistor
|
||
|
9 volt battery -w- clip
|
||
|
Pc Board
|
||
|
4 alligator clips
|
||
|
some kind of a box (small)
|
||
|
some 20 or 22 gauge wire to work with.
|
||
|

|
If you don't know how to put together a project by looking at a
|
||
|
schematic, then isn't the project to start with. I would ask someone
|
||
|
with some electronics knowledge to give you a helping hand. This
|
||
|
has to be put together on a pc-board. Enough talk, now the schematic:

Whew! Well, the schematic explains almost everything. It would be
|
||
|
helpful to you if you used one color for the line #1 clips and another
|
||
|
for the line #2 clips. It will work even if you get the ring and tip
|
||
|
mixed up, but you must get all of the clips on the right line. But,
|
||
|
to be safe, you could put tags on each clip labeling it RING #1, TIP #2,
|
||
|
ect.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Installation. Find one of those green posts that are about 3 feet high.
|
||
|
They are everywhere. Get a socket wrench to open it up. There will
|
||
|
be (a) row(s) of paired up posts. Each pair of posts represents a line.
|
||
|
YOU *MUST* KNOW THE NUMBER OF LINE #1. Sometimes the number is tagged
|
||
|
on to the pair of wires leading up to the posts, if so pick these posts
|
||
|
as your line #1. Then you can pick any other set of posts for line #2.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Now to the good part. Use of the the final product. When you call up
|
||
|
line one from your house you will get a dial tone almost immediately.
|
||
|
Using DTMF you can dial anywhere that the person who owns line 2 has
|
||
|
service to. Which means you can direct dial alliance, Australia, and
|
||
|
your favorite BBS for FREE.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The Telco. will undoubtably discover the device after 2 days, so post
|
||
|
the number on your favorite boards so you can abuse it while it is in
|
||
|
service. With a 2000 uF capacitor and a 1 meg resistor you will
|
||
|
get a 50 minute call before it disconnects you. By lowering the value
|
||
|
of the resistor and capacitor you can change the time to your taste.
|
||
|
So don't dial a wrong number, because you will have to wait 50 minutes
|
||
|
until it resets again. The formula for the time is the following:
|
||
|
|
||
|
2*R1 C1 C1 is in microfarads
|
||
|
---- * ---- R1 is in Kohms
|
||
|
100 10 See schematic for location of R1 and C1.
|
||
|
----------- = Minutes
|
||
|
60
|
||
|
|
||
|
The time produced by this formula is only approximate.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Well, that is one of the more complicated boxes to build. But it
|
||
|
is very useful and will pay for itself with its first use. It
|
||
|
would be wise to remove it before the Telco. finds it so you won't
|
||
|
have to make another, or install it on a line that belongs to a
|
||
|
family that is on vacation (GOOD IDEA)
|
||
|
|
||
|
Well, there it is. I hope it saves you a lot of cash.
|

|
I, Street Fighter, designed this box
|
||
|
for the sole purpose of fucking over
|
||
|
Ma Bell. It is not for imformational
|
||
|
purposes, but to be used to cost the
|
||
|
TelCo. thousands of dollars.
