The following text file is for AT&T & GTE payphones from 1982-1985. some
things are different on gte phones, so additions are included for them.
Section 1:The coin slot
For every 5 cents you put in a phone, a sound is made. After you put the
coins in the slot, they pass through a totalizer which counts them. They
Then collect in a hopper. To empty out the hopper, all you have to do is
activate the coin relay. Payphones sometimes hold $100 or more. To activate
the relay place 5 cents in the phone. Stick a magnet up the coin slot about 5
inches. Now remove the front panel of the phone. You will see a series of
wires. cut the red and green wires. Now in the front of the panel you will
see three screws. Touch the green wire to the third screw. Better have a hat
ready, because alot of change is gonna come flooding out. Isn't this fun?
Section 2:free credits
If you have a friend in germany you need to call this sections for you. One
of the cheap things about pay phones is they depend on tones to tell them you
inserted money. Well if you have a red box these tones are easily duplicated,
but i want to show you how do it without boxes in this file. Now Some thing
you need are...
A set of screwdrivers. You will need both philips and flathead. Now open the
front panel of the phone and cut the red and green wires. Take the cover off
the top of the phone and insert 5 cents. You should hear nothing. Find a
green wire coming from the coin slot down to the hopper. Disconnect that
wire. Now take off the case and you will see a small switch. Move the
switch. This sets the totalizer backwards 1. Now put the hopper cover back
on and reconnect the wire. Go back to the front panel. Feel to the right of
the two screws. You should feel 4 jumpers. 1 of the jumpers should be
disconnected. Reconnect it. Now cut the top jumper. You should hear a loud
pop. Now touch the green wire to the second screw. You will hear the sound
of twenty five cents being inserted. You now have 30 cents credit. Repeat as
many times as you need. Now reconnect the green wire and dial your number.
GTE Notes:
The green wire will be white. The red one will be blue. The totalizer is
located at the bottem of the front panel.
In part 2 we will show you how to take the payphone apart, and how to take one
home.
