IN ANSWER TO ALL THOSE WHO DON'T KNOW WHAT AN INFINITY TRANSMITTER IS, HERE
|
|||
|
|
IS A LITTLE HISTORY:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
A GUY BY THE NAME OF MANNY MITTLEMAN RAN A COMPANY CALLED THE WIRELESS GUITAR
|
|||
|
|
COMPANY LOCATED ON LIBERTY ST. IN NY. ASIDE FROM WIRELESS GUITARS, MANNY ALSO
|
|||
|
|
BUILT ALL SORTS OF ELECTRONIC WIRELESS "BUGS". ONE ITEM, THE INFINITY
|
|||
|
|
TRANSMITTER WAS A DEVICE THAT WAS PLACED INSIDE AN UNSUSPECTING PERSONS
|
|||
|
|
TELEPHONE. WHEN THE PHONE NUMBER OF THAT TELEPHONE WAS DIALED AND A CERTAIN
|
|||
|
|
NOTE WAS BLOWN INTO THE PHONE FROM A HOHNER, KEY-OF-C, HARMONICA, THE BUGGED
|
|||
|
|
PHONE DID NOT RING, AND WHAT'S MORE, ENABLED THE CALLER TO THEN HEAR EVERYTHING
|
|||
|
|
SAID IN THE ROOM THAT THE PHONE WAS LOCATED IN. AS LONG AS THE CALLER WANTED
|
|||
|
|
TO STAY ON THE PHONE, ALL WAS OPEN TO HIM OR HER. IF THE PHONE WAS LIFTED OFF
|
|||
|
|
THE HOOK, THE TRANSMITTER WAS DISCONECTED AND THE "BUGGED" PARTY RECEIVED A
|
|||
|
|
DIAL TONE AS IF NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH THE LINE.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
REMEMBER, ALL THIS WAS CONSTRUCTED IN THE 1960x'S WHEN IC'S WERE NOT AS
|
|||
|
|
COMMONPLACE AS THEY ARE TODAY. ALSO BEAR IN MIND THAT DURING THAT PERIOD IN
|
|||
|
|
TIME, EVEN THE TELEPHONE COMPANY WAS NOT QUITE SURE ON HOW WELL OR HOW PORTABLE
|
|||
|
|
TONE DECODING WAS.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
MY HAT IS STILL OFF TO TO MANNY MITTLEMAN, THE GREATEST DEVELOPER OF
|
|||
|
|
TELEPHONE GIMMICKERY AND BUGGER OF HOTEL ROOMS IN DIVORCE CASES.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
IF THERE IS ANY INTEREST ON BUGGING, I'LL BE GLAD TO LET YOU KNOW SOME MORE
|
|||
|
|
OF MANNY'S STUFF.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
PS. MANY GOVERNMENT AGENCY'S WERE SOME OF MANNY'S BEST CUSTOMERS.
