-
- WHAT IS CELLULAR MANAGE
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Well, Cellular Manager (CM), would best be described as a kind of reference
- program, much like Professor Falkins Phreakers Tools, except for Cellular phones
- and the like. CM has some of the most common tools in a easy, fast, menu driven
- environment, to give us just one more edge over our opponents.
- I am not, however, going to go into any great detail about what each of the
- options is for, and what can be done with the information gathered, since there
- are many other nice files already out there that do just that (I would recommend
- Bootlegger's freecell file from HohoCon, since in includes virtually all of the
- information that is available at the moment).
- The most benifical part about this program is the fact that you can track down
- the strongest control cell in your area. This is especially useful when trying
- to recieve the reverse control channel, which is very weak (due to power limit-
- ations from the mobile to the base).
-
-
- AVAILABLE OPTIONS
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- All of the options listed below are available from the main menu of the CM,
- which the program defaults into. Some options are also available from the
- command line, which is discussed later.
-
- Create MIN1 and MIN2
- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
- Generates the MIN1 and MIN2 for the phones NAM. Prompts for the areacode
- and phone number, then outputs the MIN's in binary format.
-
- Cellular Channel to Frequency
- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
- Fairly self-explanitory, converts a given cellular frequency into it's
- channel number. Will display either forward, or reverse frequencies.
-
- Cellular Frequency to Channel
- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
- Like above option, except reversed.
-
- Table of control Channels
- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
- A complete listing of all the controls numbers, their channel number, and
- forward and reverse frequencies.
-
- Convert HEX to Binary
- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
- Convienient routine to convert a HEX number (up to 10 digits) into Binary
-
- Search list of Manufactures ESN by Name
- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
- Searches through a list of Cellular phone manufactures name fields, then
- shows the most likely match and their decimal ESN identification
-
- Search list of Manufactures ESN by Identification
- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
- Like above option, except reversed.
-
- Locate and list adjacent Cells
- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
- Prompts for entry of the most powerful control or voice channel in your
- area, then displays a small hex table showing the closest cells and their
- identification. This function also displays the cell's group status as well
- as it's designator.
-
- Search through Phone programming specs
- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
- Searches through a list of Cellular phones available, and displays what
- information is available about reprogramming. Well display all possible
- matches.
-
- Search through Directory of Wirelines
- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
- Searches through a list of major cities in the US and then displays the
- Wire/Non-Wire (Band A&B) channels for each city. States can also be
- specified.
-
- Cross-Reference Cell Groups
- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
- Uses the cellulars group identification and wireline specs to list all of
- the voice channels and their corresponding frequencies. Also displays the
- control channel for the group, and it's forward frequency.
-
- Find Strongest Control Cell
- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
- This option requires you to have established 5 (no more, no less) control
- channels that can be received at your location. After inputing their
- channel numbers, the program will respond with the group that is most likely
- to be the strongest.
-
-
- THE BEST WAY TO SCAN REVERSE
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- The way I would recommend that will yield the best results when scanning the
- reverse channels is this:
-
- (1) Locate and write down the forward control frequencies that you can hear
- with the antenni removed from your scanner. Get at least five, and if
- possible stay either wireline or non-wireline. Use the table in option
- [4] if necessary.
- (2) Convert the frequencies to their appropriate channel using option [3].
- (3) Enter the channels into option [C] and then write down the group.
- (4) Use option [B] to find the channel/frequencies, as well as the strongest
- voice channels in your region.
- (5) Enter the channel into option [2] and specify [R]everse information.
-
- Simple enough, eh? Now you have the best possible chance of capturing reverse
- channel information (such as the ESN). Also try to place your scanners antenni
- in the most open location possible, although this is not necessary. I have used
- a Radio Shack Pro-37 (portable) with a DDI, and a laptop with very good success.
-
-
- A COUPLE OF BRIEF NOTES
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- In the Locate & List Adj Cells function, on the hex chart that is displayed,
- only cells that actually TOUCH the highlighed cell are adjacent to it. The cells
- on the left and right do not touch the primary cell, although they may appear to.
- This is because there are redundant cells exactly opposite it in the field, and
- I chose not to display those.
- When trying to establish what is most likely your strongest control channel,
- it does not matter if you list Wireline and Non-Wireline channels. This is due
- to the fact that most cellular companies share a zone, and split it up on the
- A/B settings appropriately. Also, do not list the same cell channel twice, since
- this will effect what it suggests.
-
-
- COMMAND LINE OPTIONS
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Several of the main menu options are also available from the command line.
- For a current listing of supported commands, at dos enter either 'CM /?' or
- 'CM /H'. Operation through the command line is exactly the same as if the
- option was selected from the menu.
-
-
-
- KNOWN BUGS
- ~~~~~~~~~~
- None.
-
-
- UPDATES
- ~~~~~~~
- I plan to keep CM as updated as possible, but this can only be done with your
- help! When you find any information that it does not contain, please leave it
- to me on any of the systems listed below. An open exchange of information helps
- everyone, and this is the next frontier of phreaking...
-
-
- PROGRAMS FOR THE FUTURE
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Here's some of the programs to be watching for, from me, in the future:
-
- ACTCHK Checks CBI accounts against their algorhythm and verifies
- format validity and extra information.
- [AVAILABLE EARLY 1993]
- CBIDBS A database that sorts and displays all of your credit
- reports. Implements the VC routines real time for
- maximum security. Allows searching for any field, comment
- fields, and ARDT directory.
- [AVAILABLE SUMMER 1993]
- VINHP A new operating system for the HP 95/LX
- [AVAILABLE FALL 1993]
-
-
- CONCLUSION
- ~~~~~~~~~~
- If you have any questions, comments, or problems, please report them to me
- on any of the boards listed below or in the program. The greets go out to:
-
- DIGITAL HITLER BOOTLEGGER THE WHITE RIDER
- MAXIMUM OVERDRIVE MR. DRUNKFUX GRANDMASTER RATTE'
-
- Erekose: Where the fuck are you? Get in touch with me..
-
- And extra special thanks to Capt. Zap for the TV plug...
- "...Send money now, this is a limited time offer, operators are standing by..."
-
- A couple of notes on the systems listed below... There finally is a transfer
- area on Demon Roach for my files (Log 38), so you can EASILY find them for a
- change. Unphamiliar Territory is now another cDc board, helping to spreading
- the word of the holy bovine to the world.
- Here's a couple of things to keep in mind; Clinton's daughter is what happens
- when you marry a relative (Jesus, what the fuck IS she?). And, of course,
- always remember...
-
- Fuck Clinton, Fuck Gore, Fuck Law & Order, and FUCK THE WORLD!
