@~~~>>---==={SteaLth BoX}===---<<~~~@ -HeVnScenT- Ok, To start this out, I HeVnScenT, Do not claim any responsibility for this Text file. What you do with this info is up to you, I mearly present the Information, I am not forcing you to make this. However I do not feel that The construction of this box violates any Laws. Also I am not claiming This box as my idea. I took a 2600 article and improved on it a little. The Original concept was created by no comment and Crash Test Idiot. Ok now for what this box does. Have you ever been beige boxin when the people who's phone line you are usin pick up? I mean what the !!@!** are you supposed to do.. You can listen, which is fun, but if you don't want to get caught, you need this box. What the SteaLth BoX does: The SteaLth BoX monitors line voltage so incase someone picks up another phone on the same line as the SteaLth BoX, the SteaLth BoX clicks you off the line without the other party knowing anything was wrong. Another good purpose for the SteaLth BoX is to keep on your phone to prevent TAPs. If someone is trying to listen in on your line, it will do the exact same thing. You can see how useful to a Phreak this box will be. PARTS: 1 15v Zener Diode 276-564 0.99 1 SpST Momentary Push button Switch 275-1571 2.39 1 LED 276-041a 0.99 1 Bridge Rectifier 276-1161a 0.99 1 Phone Line Coupler 279-358 2.79 ______________________________________________________________________________________ Construction: I will make a schematic later in this file, but as we all know they SUCK! So I will lead you threw construction. First, Cut the cathode on the LED as short as you can solder with. Next cut the cathode on the zener diode cut it as short as you did on the LED. Ok, as you probably guessed solder the two together cathode to cathode of course. Ok, Now check out your Bridge Rectifier, find the + pin and - pin on it. Ok, we are going to solder the remaining zener diode lead to the minus and the led to the plus, so you need to cut the leads to both of these as close as you can and still be able to solder to the Bridge rectifier. Ok, now after you have done that, you need to solder the two pins of the spst switch to the remaining two pins on the Bridge Rectifier. **** Once you have done this, now comes the tough part. You need to open the Coupler up. Do this by "Breaking" it in half, as you would do a stick, along the seam. Once inside, you should see two wires, a red one, the RING; and a green one the TIP. Cut the red one in half. Now would be a good time to drill your hole for your LED. Just find a good space NEAR ONE OF THE CORNERS!!! don't do it smack dab in the middle cuz we need room for the SPST switch. Ok, if you have done everything so far, you are doin good.. this is not a tough box, so if I have lost you already, you need to stay away from building boxes. Ok, Take one side of the red wire you cut inside of the coupler and solder it to one of the pins on the spst switch, which of course is also soldered to the Bridge rectifier. And then solder the other side of the red wire to the other side of the Spst switch, which of course is also soldered to the other pin on the bridge rectifier. I had some trouble trying to do this so I took some small gage wire <22 ga.> to help me connect all of these together, but I bet you can accomplish this without the wire, either way it still works. Now for the fun part, plug it in!! The installation of this box is pretty self explanatory, but I will explain anyway. Install it as you would a inline fuse. you are going to need 2 phone cords. I use those shitty cords that come with new wall phones, that are about 5-6 inches long. Plug one side of one of the cords into the phone, the other side into the box. Then plug one end of the other cord to the box, and the other end into a phone jack. Pick up the phone. If the LED did not light Up, and you did not have a dial tone, you fucked up, or your phone is already being tapped. Almost done... Now you have to find a way to get all of this inside the coupler. stick the led into the hole you drilled. Ok that parts done. Now make a hole for the Spst switch... Now stick it in, btw I have not been able to install the switch correctly, my switch is totally outside the box, which gave me more than enough room to get all the rest in there. Once you have it all in there snap the box back together. **Done** Uses: Well, I have one guarding the line right off the wall to my modem/phone. I also use mine with my beige box, and both have come in VERY handy. Btw if you haven't figured it out yet, if you are going to use your beige box to LISTEN in on conversation's, TAKE the BOX OFF!! =) that was my main problem with the article published in 2600, but other than that great box guys!
