Okay. First, the basics, for the people who don't know what Red Box tones
|
|
are. A Red Box is a device that generates Quarter, Dime and Nickle tones,
|
|
so the operator thinks that coins have been dropped in the slots. For a
|
|
Quarter there are 5 beeps that are outpulsed at 12-17 pulses, for the dime
|
|
there are 2 beeps that are outpulsed at 5-8.5 PPS and for a nickle one beep
|
|
outpulsed the same as a dime. Now each beep consists of 2 tones which are
|
|
2200hz and 1700hz. Below is a way to get these tones without having to
|
|
actually build a Red Box.

Now go down to the fortress fones. Do it at night, as it's not advisable
|
|
to do in the day-time when people can see you.
|
|
|
|
Look for two fortress fone booths connected together. This will make the
|
|
job a lot easier if you are alone. Now, connect the telefone pickup to the
|
|
receiver of the handset of one of the telefones. (And don't forget to
|
|
connect it to your cassette recorder). You might have to tape the telefone
|
|
pick-up to the receiver.
|
|
|
|
Now put the fone on hook and go to the neighbouring fone booth. From here
|
|
make a telefone call to the first booth.
|

|
|
|
|
Leave your handset hanging and quickly go to the other fone booth where the
|
|
telefone pickup is hooked up. Press the recording button. Then pick up the
|
|
handset and LEAVE IT OFF HOOK (remember the recording is still going on).
|
|
Now go to the second telefone booth where you made the call, drop a couple of
|
|
quarters, dimes and nickles.
|
|
|
|
You are done!!!!!!! When you play back the cassette you will hear the tones
|
|
of the coins you put in.
|
|
|
|
This procedures may also work from home, whereby you'll have the telefone
|
|
pick-up connected at home, and someone calls you and drops in the coins.
