touch-tone & free calls
there are several ways to make free calls (sprint, mci, etc.) using a rotary
phone. they are:
1. use a number that accepts voice as well as dtmf. such a # is (800)
521-xxxx. as of writing this, a code was xx6x7x9x.
a) if using voice, wait for the computer to say, "authorization #,
please." then say each digit slowly, it will beep after each digit is
said. after every group of digits, it will repeat what you have said,
then say yes if it is correct, otherwise say no. if the access code is
correct, it will thank you and ask for the destination #, then say the
area code + number as above. another such # is (800) xx5- 8xxx, which
has a 6 digit access code. (note: if using touch-tone on this #, enter
the code immediately after the tone stops.)
2. hook up a touch-tone fone into your rotary fone. attach the red wire from
the touch-tone fone to the "r" terminal inside the fone on the network
box. then hook the green wire to the "b" terminal. to use this dial the #
using rotary & then use the touch-tone for the codes. (don't hang up the
rotary fone while doing this though!) if this doesn't work then reverse
the 2 wires. (note: if your line can accept touch-tone but you have a
rotary fone then you can hook up a tone fone directly for all calls but
this usually isn't the case.) such as radio shack's 43-138.
this is the tone matrix for a box which generates tones that operators use to
dial..rotary works as well, on operator lines, but this is technological(!).
now i agree with the opinion of a well known phreak that 'boxing' is/will be
for the most part dead, but this is tradition... first,you dial dir.asst, or an
oper. etc , then you blast the line with a 2600hz tone. this gives you the
line, this is also how ma bell tracks down blue boxers... there are 2600hz
detectors s y stems, an even on old #4 crossbars... ondce on a oper.trunk
line, you use your blue box/rotary tdo dial...
so, if you use 2600hz, which is necess ary, unless you are *very* careful, you
will be snagged.
finally, this is what you read! so long and hard for:
700 : 1 : 2 : 4 : 7 : 11 :
900 : + : 3 : 5 : 8 : 12 :
1100 : + : + : 6 : 9 : kp :
1300 : + : + : + : 10 : kp2 :
1500 : + : + : + : + : st :
: 700 : 900 : 1100 : 1300 : 1500 :
use kp to start a call, and st to stop, with the beloved 2600hz tone to dis
connect. i also hear that 2 600hz resets sprint nodes and gives you teir
initial tone..
now, if you're wondering about what to call from an operator trunk, here are
some goodies to help you out:
xxx+101 - toll switching
xxx+121 - local operator
xxx+131 - information
xxx+141 - rate & route
xxx+181 - coin refund operator
xxx+11501 - mobile operator
xxx+11521 - mobile operator
xxx+11511 - conference operator
these work with rotary or oper ators to nes, but only on oper. trunk lr*zii)x
thanks for listening!
blue boxing - part ii
while reading the fine article on the blue box i saw that there a lot of
data left out of the do cument. i hope this a dds, in some small way, to the
information.
first the tones. while all the information is correct, the timing specs
were not included . the tone pairs are to remain on for 1/10 sec. with 1/10
sec. of slience between digits. the 'kp' tones should be sent for 2/10 sec. a
way to defeat the 2600hz traps is to send a long with t he 2600hz some pink
noise(most of the energy in this signal sh ould be above 3000hz, this si deal
won't make it over the toll network, but should carry as far as your local toll
center) so that the traps won't find 'pure' 260 0hz on the trunk. this i s not
a perfectly safe way to box, but it should slow down the discovery.
as to use, the first thing youn eed to understand is that there are two(2)
types of toll completing trunk, inward and outward. the names are reference to
the office that is switc hing the call(the toll center that serves the wats
line you cal led) and each type of trunk has a different class of service. from
an inward toll completing trunk, you can reach the different ser vice operators
, the toll test board, and the inwar operator. some offices also allow remote
testing and it is in these offices that you can access the outward to ll
completing trunks. the out ward trunks allow you to make verification
(emergency) calls, do service monitoring(tapping), stack trunks(busy out all
trunks between la and nyc), enable and disable tsps positions, and in some
cases(on some 4a's) issue temporary rer outing instructio ns( send all calls
from la to nyc via miam i, boston, or any other class 5 office or offices).
both type of trunk allow you to place a 'standard' call with a box.
in some offices, mostly the small ones with a toll test board that is
unattended at night and on weekends, you can e to an outward toll completing
trunk as well as performing other test and routing functions. you do this by
using three digit codes that are invalid exchang es(not of the pattern nnx[see
note 1]). during the sixites the codes used were fairly standard and
consistent, however when the b oxes became popular and the phreaks started
doing things like routing all calls from dallas to ft. worth via washtngton
d.c. mother started changing the test codes on a random(as far as i know )
basis. what i would suggest is that everybody interested in doing this sort of
thing pick out a nice quiet little office somewhere and work on discovering the
codes acceptable to that office. bering plan area (npa, also known as area
code) has an office desiignated as its master office. this office cont rols
all of the other toll offices in the area as well as serving as a concentration
point for most out of area calls. to access the services of a non-master office
you need it's 'city code', this is a three(3) digit code that is of the form
0xx, and is sent after the area code [see note 2 ]. as an example, the 'city
code' for canton, ohio is 0xx; thus to reach the inward operator in canton, you
would send 'kp-2xx-0xx-1xx-st' where as if you wanted the inward operator in
clevela nd, you would send 'kp-2xx-1xx-st'. the reason this is necessary is
that the operator in cleveland can't verify a number in canton, so if you want
to verify someone in canton you need the city code. also, most area master
off ices have dedicated data trunks to the network control center and thus
don't accept test and rerouting comman ds over the switched net-work. in
conclusion, the switching netw ork will do a lot more for you then connect you
to people and the small offices that require a 'city code' are the type of
office to try to break.
nickie haflinger, the coven.
note 1: the normal format for telephone numbers is as follows:
nyn/nnx-xxxx. where n=any digit exce pt 1 and 0; y=0 or 1 , and x=any digit.
yes i know that in some area codes the nnx format has changed to nxx . this is
a new occurrence and only occur where there has be an outrageous population
increase in the last few years and all of the funny exchanges are connected
directly to master offices and thus don't conflict with the 'city code' for mat
note 2: you can obtain the 'city code' for a number by calling rate and
route and asking for the 'numbers route' to nyn/nnx(i.e. 914/725).
