IT WAS INTENDED FOR INFORMATIONAL AND EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY. IF YOU GET IN TROUBLE, ITS NOT MY FAULT. THANK YOU. - ingrediants - --------------- 1) touchtone fone (not a cordless) 2) tools to take the fone apart with. this one you'll haveta figure out, since there are many different types of fones. 3) a few inches of fone cord 4) wire cutters 5) aligator clips 6) soldering iron and solder (optional but recommended) 7) a small box to put it all in (optional) - construction - ---------------- 1) okay, first of all figure out what you need to take apart the fone. then take it apart. 2) once you're inside the fone, follow the wires coming from the modular plug (usually red & green) and see where they go into. they should lead into some type of main circuit board thing. there should also be a few other wires connected to the circuit board such as the microphone, speaker and key pad. disconnect all of those (and any others) except for the speaker. 3) now what you need to do is cut the two wires coming the modular plug (the red and green ones). you will want to cut the wires off about 3 or 4 inches from the circuit board to give yourself some wire to work with. 4) next, take the two ends that you just cut of and connect aligator clips to them. 5) this part may take some knowledge about beige boxing but i think you can figure it out. hook up your current creation to a fone line like you would a beige box with the aligator clips. put the speaker up to your ear. if you hear a dial tone you've successfully built a new version of the busy box. if not, well just start again from step 2. - tips for construction - ------------------------- okay, i realize my directions were prolly kinda confusing. but if you're having trouble read them carefully. another veru helpful thing to remember is that all the box is really doing is simulating a fone off the hook. that is basically how i thought the whole thing up. if you're having trouble just keep at it and you'll soon realize its really very simple to build. - use - ------- okay so you've built this bad-ass and you're prolly wondering how to use it. so i'll tell you. the new busy box simulates a fone off the hook. so, what you do is go to the victim's house and hook it up to their fone line. the best way to do this is to find the little gray box on the outside of their house. open it up and then hook it to their phone line. when hooking it up just remember, red to red, green to green. for a more detailed descrip on how to hook it up, read a phile on beige boxing. thank you and enjoy.
