OK WELL THIS ARTICLE WILL DEAL WITH SOMETHING THAT THE PUBLIC IN GENERAL,
INCLUDING EVEN THE MOST DIE HARD PHREAKERS,DONT KNOW.THE FIRST PART
WILL DEAL WITH THE BACKGROUND KNOW-HOW, THE SECOND PART WILL DEAL WITH THE
TONES NEEDED.THE THIRD WILL DEAL WITH WHAT TO DO WITH THEM WHEN YOU HAVE
THEM.THE FOURTH PART WILL BE THE THE CONCLUDING PART,ON THE AMERICAN
PORTION.
FIRST LESSON
THE WHAT THE HELL HE IS TALKING ABOUT PART.
WELL THE WORD PHREAKING REALLY MEANS GETTING A CALL TO GO THROUGH AND NOT
HAVING TO PAY FOR IT.THE REST OF THIS ARTICLE WILL USE THE TERM PHREAKER OR
PHREAKING. WELL PHREAKING REALLY STARTED IN 1960 WHEN TWO MEN FOUND,IN THE
BOTTOM OF THIER TELEPHONE COMPANY,A OLD,OLD,OLD TEC-MANUAL.IT HAD ALL THE INFO
ON TELCO TERMINOLGY OF THAT DAY,AND THE SUCH,BUT THE BEST PART OF THE OLD
MANUAL WAS,----THE TRUNCK TONES. THEY TOLD HOW TO,WHEN TO,WHAT SHOULD HAPPEN,
AND THE SUCH.THAT FAITHFULL DAY BACK IN 1968,WAS THE DAWNING OF THE PHREAKER.
SECOND LESSON
OR
OK THAT HAPPENED SO LONG AGO WHAT ABOUT NOW,AND HOW CAN I PUT THAT OLD STUFF
TO WORK FOR ME??
WELL YOU NEED ONE OF TWO THINGS
1-A COMPUTER CAPABLE OF PLAYING MUSIC.
2-A HOME MADE MEMORY REDIAL BLUE BOX.
AND WELL SINCE,I GUESS,YOU ARE READING THIS OFF OF A BBS YOU ALREADY HAVE 1

THIRD LESSON
OR
WELL HELL DUDE KEEP GOING,CAUSE I'M
READY AND WILLING.
OK SO YOUR JUST SITTING THERE LOOKING AT THIS DUMB PGM YOU MADE,WELL ENOUGH
OF THE TECH INFO,NOW FOR THE HANDS ON. YOU MUST ALWAYS BEFORE A CALL GET INTO
A TRUNK THIS TODAY CAN ONLY BE DONE BY CALLING A STEP-BY-STEP SWITCHING
SYSTEM,AS OPPOSED TO CROSSBAR,ESS,OR DMS.FOR SAKE OF SIMPLICITY I WILL USE
MONTREAL DIRECTORY ASSICTANCE. CALL ON YOU PHONE,(DTMF),TOUCH-TONES.
1-514-555-1212,WHEN YOU HEAR IT RING PLAY INTO THE PHONE 2600HZ.IF ALL GOES
WELL YOU WILL HEAR KERCHINK KERCHUNK SLINCE.NOW AFTER YOU DO THIS NO MORE
TOUCH TONES WILL BE USED. FOR YOUR FIRST TIME TRY 2600HZ WAIT 1 SEC AND KEY IN
KP,ALL CALLS MUST START WITH KP AND END IN ST,YOUR FRIENDS AREA CODE AND # AND
ST.NOW WAIT.IF ALL GOES WELL IT WILL RING AND YOUR FRIEND WILL ANSWER.BUT
DON'T STAY ON TOO LONG.
FOURTH LESSON
OR
YEA BUT WHATS ALL THE HIDDEN STUFF
I HEAR ABOUT.
OK SO YOU GOT THIS FAR AND ARE HUNGRY FOR MORE,WELL IF YOU ARE NOT THEN YOU
WILL NEVER BE CLASSIFIED AS A PHREAKER BUT A LOSER. THIS SYSTEM HAS A GREAT
MANY FILES ON JUST THAT SUBJECT SO LOOK THEM OVER.IF YOU READ SOMETHING ON
ANOTHER GREAT FILE,AND DON'T UNDERSTAND IT,THEN YOU ARE MESSING WITH SOMETHING
OUT OF YOU LEAGUE. GRADUALLY BUILD UP TO IT THEN YOU WILL NOT BE CONSIDERED A
LOSER BUT A GREAT PHREAKER. YOU KNOW I STARTED 6-7 YEARS AGO AND I TOO HAD TO
GRADUALLY BUILD UP TO IT, BUT NOT UNTILL A YEAR AGO THIS MONTH DID I HAVE AS
MUCH FUN IN IT, AS YOU WILL. AS I AM WRITING THIS ARTICLE I STILL HAVE VISIONS
OF ALL THE GOOD BBS'S THAT USED TO BE UP TO HELP NEW PHREAKS AND EXPERT
PHREAKS, AND YOU KNOW WHAT I FEEL KINDA SORROWED THAT THEY ARE JUST A HANDFULL
OF GOOD BBS'S AROUND FOR ALL THE FUTURE PHREAKS OF THE WORLD TO LEARN ON.
--------------------------------------
THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION IS FOR
ADVANCE TO EXPERT PHREAKERS ONLY!!!
--------------------------------------
OK ENOUGH OF THAT OLD HAT HERE IS WHAT I MEANT ABOUT 'EVEN THE DIE HARD
PHREAKS DON'T KNOW'. THIS WAS FOUND OUT ON OCT 10 1984 STRAIGHT FROM TELECOM
AUSTRALIA. I WILL TELL YOU WHAT THE TONES ARE FOR THE CCITT #5 IS,WHICH BY THE
WAY IS USED BY THE REST OF THE WORLD!!
. FIFTH LESSON
. OR
HOW TO GET ON ANOTHER COUNTRIES TRUNK.
OK FIRST HERE ARE THE FREQUENCIES:
THE CCITT#5 FREQUENCIES
(1) - 1380 + 1500
(2) - 1380 + 1620
(3) - 1500 + 1620
(4) - 1380 + 1740
(5) - 1500 + 1740
(6) - 1620 + 1740
(7) - 1380 + 1860
(8) - 1500 + 1860
(9) - 1620 + 1860
(0) - 1740 + 1860
(11) - 1380 + 1980
(12) - 1500 + 1980
(13) - 1620 + 1980
(14) - 1740 + 1980
(15) - 1860 + 1980
ALL FREQUENICIES GIVEN ARE IN HZ.
OK SO NOW YOU HAVE THE FREQUENCIES LETS GET ON A AUSTRALIAN TRUNK.
YOU MUST FIRST CALL AN AUSTRALIAN # AND SINCE SOMETHING MAY GO WRONG FOR
YOU EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE,I SUGGEST STRONGLY CALLING THROUGH AN EXTENDER
THAT WILL ALLOW AN OVERSEAS CALL TO GO THROUGH. IF YOU HAVE ONE PUT IT TO USE
NOW!!
OK LETS ASSUME YOU DO.WELL CALL AN AUSTRALIAN # AND WHEN YOU HEAR IT RING
PLAY THE MAGICAL TONES FOR THE CCITT EQUIPMENT,ITS 2400HZ+2600HZ,WHEN YOU
DO THIS YOU WILL HEAR A SOUND WHICH WILL MAKE YOU THINK THAT THE
CONNECTION WAS LOST,BUT IT WASN'T,IN FACT YOU ARE NOW ON AN AUSTRALIAN
TRUNK!! AND BY THE WAY,THERE IS NOT A 10SEC TRUNK TIME OUT.
SIXTH LESSON
OR
THE KEY DEFINITONS PART.
NOW YOU NEED TO KNOW THE PROPER PROCEDURE FOR THE CCITT LINE,AND WHAT KEYS DO
WHAT. KEYS 0-12 ARE EXACTLY LIKE OURS!!
KEY DEFINITIONS
--------------------------------------
13 IS LIKE OUR KP.
14 IS LIKE OUR KP2.
15 IS LIKE OUR ST.
--------------------------------------
SEVENTH LESSON
OR
THE PROPER PROCEDURE AND KEY USAGE
PART.
OK NOW YOU KNOW ALL THE KEYS AND TONES SO NOW IT IS TIME TO LEARN HOW TO USE
THEM. LETS ASSUME YOU WERE GOING TO CALL A # IN AUSTRALIA,THE PROCEDURE WOULD
BE:
13+5+15+0+AC+# WAIT ABOUT 2 OR 3 SECS AND ENTER 1(OPER) OR 2(SUBSCRIBER) OR
3(TEST CALL). AND DON'T WORRY ABOUT THE SOUNDS YOU HEAR AFTER YOU KEY IN THE
TONES, BECAUSE ALL CCITT#5 TRUNKS ARE SUPPOSE TO ECHO BACK EACH CHAR YOU KEY
IN!! NOW LETS CALL THE UNITED STATES. PROCEDURE WOULD BE-->13+2(A LIVE OPER)
OR0(SUBSCRIBER)+AC+#+15. NOW IF IT COULDN'T BE PUT THROUGH, REORDER OR AN
INTERNATIONAL RECORDING TRY THE ONLY INTERNATIONAL SENDER AUSTRALIA HAS,IT'S
MONTREAL CANADA. YOU WOULD ENTER 14+COUNTRY CODE+2OR0+AC+#+15. NOW THAT SHOULD
BE ABOUT ALL THAT YOU NEED KNOW TO HAVE FUN ON ANOTHER COUNTRIES TRUNKS.
EIGHTH LESSON
OR
THE CONCLUDING PART.
WELL IF YOU ACCTUALLY LIVED IN AUSTRALIA YOU WOULD HAVE A BITCH OF A TIME
BOXING,DUE TO THE FACT THAT THEY USE DC PHONES UNLIKE OUR AC PHONES. YOU SEE
WHEN WE HANG-UP OUR PHONES THE PHONE SHOOTS A 2600HZ TONE TO TELL THE PHONE
COMPANY THAT THE PARTY HAS HUNG-UP,BUT OVER THERE THEY JUST REMOVE THE GROUND,
OR THE NEGATIVE SIDE OF THE LINE,SO THERE ARE NO TONES LIKE OURS.IF YOU ARE
SAYING HEY YOU MUST BE WRONG I KNOW SUCH AND SUCH WHO LIVES THERE AND BOXES
ALL THE TIME,WELL YOUR PARTIALLY RIGHT.THEY DO,OR AT LEAST THEY DID.IN THE PAST
FEW YEARS A CALL TO THE STATES COST THEM ABOUT 20-30 A MIN.WHICH EQUALS ABOUT
25-40$ OUR MONEY.BUT THEY DID ONE UP ON THIER TELECOMM,THIER LIKE THE OLD
A.T.T. MA-BELL,YOU SEE THEY WOULD SHORT HAUL THIER CALLS TO THE STATES. WHAT THEY WOULD DO IS CALL NEW ZEALAND AND THEN BLAST THE 2400+2600HZ SIGNAL AND
BOOM THEY WOULD BE PAYING FOR A CALL TO NEW ZEALAND,THE COST IS LIKE CALLING
FROM NY TO LA HERE, A SUBSTANIAL DIFFERENCE BUT YOU SEE THAT IS NOT SO
ANYMORE. THE COST IS ABOUT THE SAME,$1.00 DIFFERENCE A MIN,SO AUSTRALIANS DON'T
REALLY NEED TO BOX ANYMORE,AND THEY DON'T!!WELL I HAVE TRIED TO HELP THOSE WHO
ARE NEW THIS FIELD AND THE OLD TIMERS IN IT TOO,WITH THIS ARTICLE. I HOPE THAT
AT LEAST ONE LESSON HELPS SOME OF YOU OUT THERE!!
I WISH TO THANK THE FOLLOWING.
TELECOM AUSTRALIA
A.T.T. WHICH WITHOUT THIER LINES I COULD NEVER HAVE HAD AS MUCH FUN IN
THIS FIELD,OR LEARNED SO MUCH ABOUT THE WORLD!!
