COPPER BOX
----------
Conceived By: The Cypher
-------
Purpose
-------
This box can destroy a phone company, no matter how big. You
could bring AT&T down to their knees! Only to be used by the
most irate of Phracks, it is intended for informational purposes
only.
-------
History
-------
This is really not a Box, but if you consider a Cheese Box a Box,
then it is. It was first conceived back in 1986 when a Phriend
and I came up with the idea while using a Copper-coloured fone,
hence, a Copper Box.
------------
Instructions
------------
You must obtain [1] extender, or phone company port, like an MCI
or SPRINT access number. [2] A hell of a lot of nerve, and ven-
detta towards the phone company (phriend gets busted, rates in-
crease, etc.) [3] a computer & modem capable of autodialing
[tone.]
Dial the number of the L/D service, then enter the code. Dial
the number of the service again, through the outdial number you
are still on, enter code, then dial again and again. You should
hear, after a while (it will take a long time for BIG companies)
a slight high-pitched, unstable tone, that grows louder and
louder w/every dial. Once it gets so loud that it refuses to let
in any more sounds, you have just completed the first cycle of
the Copper Box.
Leave line off-hook for about 10 minutes or until the tone seems
to calm down, or stop completely. Then, dial again and repeat
over and over again until when you dial a last time, it [the
port] doesn't answer. You have just killed a telephone company,
extender, etc.
-------------------
Theory of Operation
-------------------
What happens is that when the tone begins to rise, it is a result
of cross- talk feedback. The more you dial, the more it grows.
In systems like these, the small, sensitive equipment such as am-
pliers, etc. begin to burn out as a result of the feedback,
damaging the equipment, and possibly starting a fire at the loca-
tion of the equipment.
