EXCHANGE SCANNING (99XX)
|
||
---------------------------------------
|
||
|
||
Almost every exchange in the Bell System has test #'s and other "goodies" such
|
||
as loops with dial-ups.
|
||
|
||
These "goodies" are usually found between 9900 and 9999 in your losal
|
||
exchange. If you have the time and initiative, scan your exchange and you may
|
||
become lucky!
|
||
|
||
Here are my findings in the 914-268 exchange:
|
||
|
||
9901 - Verifaction (recording of a/c and exchange)
|
||
9927 - Osc. tone (possible tone side of a loop)
|
||
9936 - Voice # to the telco central office
|
||
9937 - Voice # to the telco central office
|
||
9941 - Computer (digital voice transmission?)
|
||
9960 - Osc. tone (tone side loop -- may also be a computer in some exchanges
|
||
9961 - No response (other end of loop?)
|
||
9962 - No response (other end of loop?)
|
||
9963 - No response (other end of loop?)
|
||
9966 - Computer (see 9941)
|
||
9968 - Tone that disappears--responds to certain touch tone keys
|
||
|
||
|
||
What you find depends upon the switching equipment in the exchange and the
|
||
Telco operating company.
|
||
|
||
Since I have done the above 914-268-99XX scan, Congers (268) has installed new
|
||
switching equipment (DMS100). Some of the numbers are the same, but I have
|
||
noticed that on the DMS100, the recordings are also stored in this area.
|
||
268-9903, 9906, & 9912 are all different recordings. Also, there are 2 fortress
|
||
fone recordings at 268-9911 (deposit 5 cents or else) and 268-9913 (deposit 10
|
||
cents).
|
||
|
||
In some areas (like Delaware), I have noticed that 9906-7 is ringback. If you
|
||
find anything interesting, be sure to drop TAP a line.
|
||
|
||
Have phun and remember it's only local call to see what your CO has in store
|
||
for you!

99xx TELEPHONE SCAN
|
||
By TOM BROWN 2-June-84
|
||
|
||
=====================================
|
||
|
||
I have recently done a scan of all the 99xx numbers in the 376, 464, 665, and
|
||
582 exchanges. You just dial the exchange, 99, then the two numbers that you
|
||
see in this list that are under the exchange you dialed.
|
||
|
||
For example, if you wanted to dial a number in the 376 exchange, you would
|
||
look in the list under 376 and pick out a 2 digit number, say, 71. To dial the
|
||
number, you would dial: 376-9971... Get it? Well, if you do, here are my
|
||
results:
|
||
|
||
* = must dial 201 before the number
