INTRODUCTION:
|
||
|
|
||
|
Now with the warnings over here is the equipment. Because of the highly
|
||
|
sophisticated nature of the modern telephone network, the installation of the
|
||
|
tap is a very tricky business indeed. It will take a capacitor (100nf), a
|
||
|
pair of high impedance headphones, anything up to two crocodile clips and at
|
||
|
least twelve seconds of concentrated effort. (See fig. 1)

|

|
One alternative to hanging around waiting for the telephone to answer is to
|
||
|
connect up a tape recorder. Now we come to the really sophisticated
|
||
|
electronics: since it is waste of tape to run the recorder continuosly, it is
|
||
|
useful to switch it on only when the phone is being used. Voice activated
|
||
|
switches? Why bother. A relay will do the trick, connected in series with
|
||
|
one of the lines. See plans on how to build a TAN box. There are plenty
|
||
|
around.
|
||
|
|
||
|
RADIO BUGS:
|
||
|
|
||
|
The next step up is some kind of radio bug. In the days not so long ago when
|
||
|
the BT issue phone was a wedge of cheese shaped affair with a dial on the
|
||
|
front, a favourite bugging device used to be the 'drop in' mike. The handset
|
||
|
microphone was a carbon granule device, quite bulky but easy to remove;
|
||
|
unscrew the mouthpiece, slip off a pair of wires from their terminals and its
|
||
|
out. The crafty buggers found a much better use for all that space than
|
||
|
filling it with carbon granuals. Buying microphones from the very same
|
||
|
people who supplied BT, they would empty out of the granuals, put in a much
|
||
|
smaller mike and would empty out the granuals, put in a much smaller mike and
|
||
|
a small radio transmitter, then seal the whole thing back together again.
|
||
|
Drop it into the handset and off you go. It is estimated that the numbers
|
||
|
made around the world ran into millions, so they were not uncommon! Still
|
||
|
used for bugging public telephones, but not much good for the wide varity of
|
||
|
office and home phones now in use.
|
||
|
|
||
|
SERIES AND PARALLEL BUGS:
|
||
|
|
||
|
Also very common and readily available are a variety of bugs which connect
|
||
|
either in series with one telephone wire or in parallel across the two.
|
||
|
The series bug has the advantage of only transmitting when the telephone is
|
||
|
used; the parallel one transmits continuosly in its crudest form (and most
|
||
|
commercial bugs are pretty crude) but can be a little more difficult to
|
||
|
detect by simple voltage measurements. Let's face it, it would be a trivial
|
||
|
matter to design a bug that is both triggered by use of the phone and
|
||
|
virtually impossible to detect by voltage measurements, but since almost
|
||
|
nobody takes seriously the idea that they may be a suitable target (do you
|
||
|
think you are, for instance?) and therefore won't be checking, why bother
|
||
|
with anything complicated?
|
||
|

||

|

|
INFINITY TRANSMITTER:
|
||
|
|
||
|
The most exotic of the commonly used listerning devices is the 'infinity
|
||
|
transmitter', so called because once the victim can be snooped on from
|
||
|
anywhere in the world. Anywhere his phone can be reached by direct dialling,
|
||
|
that is. This is what you do: dial up the victim's number and hold your
|
||
|
little black mystery box close to the mouthpiece. In the simplest versions,
|
||
|
the mystery box just sends a tone down the line which is picked up by a
|
||
|
frequency selective circuit inside the bug. The mystery box activates the
|
||
|
infinity transmitter, which you previously attached to the victim's phone.
|
||
|
Once activated, the transmitter prevents the phone from ringing, and instead
|
||
|
sends down the line any sounds picked up by the victim's telephone, or by the
|
||
|
bug's own internal microphone.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This is how it works. On recieving the activating tone, the transmitter
|
||
|
passes enough current between the two lines to fool BT's equipment into
|
||
|
thinking that the phone has been answered, so the ringing tone is cancelled
|
||
|
and the line is opened. Once connection is made, all the bug has to do is to
|
||
|
modulate the line voltage in just the way the telephone itself would. Not
|
||
|
very difficult. The victim is entirly unaware of anything happening and,
|
||
|
with a hookswitch defeat installed, it could be his own telephone acting as
|
||
|
a microphone for the transmitter. The bug will automatically cut out if the
|
||
|
handset of the victim's phone is lifted, allowing it to be used normally.
|
||
|
|
||
|
See picture 2 for details. (End of file)
|
||
|
|
||
|
HOOK SWITCH DEFEAT:
|
||
|
|
||
|
Much simpler than the infinity transmitter, and used in much the same way, is
|
||
|
the hookswitch defeat. When you hang up the telephone, a switch disconnects
|
||
|
the handset... unless, that is, somebody has doctored the phone. The
|
||
|
simplest method is just to wire a resistor across the switch. In use you
|
||
|
phone the victim, apologise for having called up the wrong number, let him
|
||
|
hang up but keep your phone off the hook to hold open the connection.
|
||
|
Then you listen in. The sound level won't be very high, so you may need an
|
||
|
amplifier.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The difficulty with a plain hookswitch is that you need access to the
|
||
|
telephone itself and enough time to dismantle it. There is also the
|
||
|
possibility that an innocent caller may be slow to hang up and find himself
|
||
|
accidently eavesdroping. A bit of a giveaway. Hookswitch defeats are easy
|
||
|
to spot by anyone familiar with the insides of a telephone, but can often be
|
||
|
overlooked in inspection by a suspicious buggee since, unlike infinity
|
||
|
transmitters and the like, it could easily be part of the workings of the
|
||
|
phone.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Take the idea of 'looking as if it belongs' to its conclusion and you have
|
||
|
the 'lost' tranmitter. What you do is to find a large-ish component in the
|
||
|
telephone (or typewritter, calculator, or whatever) which itself uses any
|
||
|
signal you need access to. You then rush home to your garden shed and knock
|
||
|
up a device which not only does what this component does, but contains a
|
||
|
transmitter too. You package it to look exactly like the component you're
|
||
|
replacing. Then you pop back one night and swap the two around. Anyone
|
||
|
inspecting the phone or whatever will find it contains exactly the components
|
||
|
it should - no more and no less. The transmitter is really and truly lost.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This really is big league stuff - the kind of trick employees of rival
|
||
|
governments like to play on each other. Not the kind of thing you will
|
||
|
personally come across unless you have access to very valuable information
|
||
|
indeed. There's an American company called Fox which could be persuaded to
|
||
|
come up with the goodies if you approach them in the right way and have the
|
||
|
funds. They're in the phone book.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Okay that is about it for this document, but do bear in mind that BT are very
|
||
|
touchy about having alien equipment connected to their lines, even if it is
|
||
|
just a capacitor and headphones. And stay away from my phone, if you don't
|
||
|
mind!!
