- ANAC numbers are convenient if you want to know the telephone number
- of a pair of wires.
-
-
- 11. What is the ANAC number for my area?
-
- How to find your ANAC number:
-
- Look up your NPA (Area Code) and try the number listed for it. If that
- fails, try 1 plus the number listed for it. If that fails, try the
- common numbers like 311, 958 and 200-222-2222. If you find the ANAC
- number for your area, please let us know.
-
- Note that many times the ANAC number will vary for different switches
- in the same city. The geographic naming on the list is not intended
- to be an accurate reference for coverage patterns, it is for
- convenience only.
-
- Many companies operate 800 number services which will read back to you
- the number from which you are calling. Many of these require
- navigating a series of menus to get the phone number you are looking
- for.

- (800)238-4959 A voice mail system
- (800)328-2630 A phone sex line
- (800)568-3197 Info Access Telephone Company's Automated Blocking Line
- (800)571-8859 A phone sex line
- (800)692-6447 (800)MY-ANI-IS
- (800)769-3766 Duke Power Company Automated Outage System
-
- An non-800 ANAC that works nationwide is 404-988-9664. The one catch
- with this number is that it must be dialed with the AT&T Carrier
- Access Code 10732.
-
- Another non-800 nationwide ANAC is Glen Robert of Full Disclosure
- Magazine's number, 10555-1-708-356-9646.
-
- Please use local ANAC numbers if you can, as abuse or overuse kills
- 800 ANAC numbers.

- 12. What is a ringback number?
-
- A ringback number is a number that you call that will immediately
- ring the telephone from which it was called.
-
- In most instances you must call the ringback number, quickly hang up
- the phone for just a short moment and then let up on the switch, you
- will then go back off hook and hear a different tone. You may then
- hang up. You will be called back seconds later.
-
-
- 13. What is the ringback number for my area?
-
- An 'x' means insert those numbers from the phone number from which you
- are calling. A '?' means that the number varies from switch to switch
- in the area, or changes from time to time. Try all possible
- combinations.
-
- If the ringback for your NPA is not listed, try common ones such as
- 954, 957 and 958. Also, try using the numbers listed for other NPA's
- served by your telephone company.

- 14. What is a loop?
-
- This FAQ answer is excerpted from: ToneLoc v0.99 User Manual
- by Minor Threat & Mucho Maas
-
- Loops are a pair of phone numbers, usually consecutive, like 836-9998
- and 836-9999. They are used by the phone company for testing. What
- good do loops do us? Well, they are cool in a few ways. Here is a
- simple use of loops. Each loop has two ends, a 'high' end, and a
- 'low' end. One end gives a (usually) constant, loud tone when it is
- called. The other end is silent. Loops don't usually ring either.
- When BOTH ends are called, the people that called each end can talk
- through the loop. Some loops are voice filtered and won't pass
- anything but a constant tone; these aren't much use to you. Here's
- what you can use working loops for: billing phone calls! First, call
- the end that gives the loud tone. Then if the operator or someone
- calls the other end, the tone will go quiet. Act like the phone just
- rang and you answered it ... say "Hello", "Allo", "Chow", "Yo", or
- what the fuck ever. The operator thinks that she just called you, and
- that's it! Now the phone bill will go to the loop, and your local
- RBOC will get the bill! Use this technique in moderation, or the loop
- may go down. Loops are probably most useful when you want to talk to
- someone to whom you don't want to give your phone number.
-
-
- 15. What is a loop in my area?
-
- Many of these loops are no longer functional. If you are local
- to any of these loops, please try them out an e-mail me the results
- of your research.

- 16. What is a CNA number?
-
- CNA stands for Customer Name and Address. The CNA number is a phone
- number for telephone company personnel to call and get the name and
- address for a phone number. If a telephone lineman finds a phone line
- he does not recognize, he can use the ANI number to find it's phone
- number and then call the CNA operator to see who owns it and where
- they live.
-
- Normal CNA numbers are available only to telephone company personnel.
- Private citizens may legally get CNA information from private
- companies. Two such companies are:
-
- Unidirectory (900)933-3330
- Telename (900)884-1212
-
- Note that these are 900 numbers, and will cost you approximately one
- dollar per minute.
-
- If you are in 312 or 708, AmeriTech has a pay-for-play CNA service
- available to the general public. The number is 796-9600. The cost is
- $.35/call and can look up two numbers per call.
-
- An interesting number is The House of Windsor Collection at
- (800)433-3210. If you dial it and press 1 to request a catalog, it
- will ask for your telephone number. If will then tell you the street
- name of any telephone number you enter.

- 20. What is scanning?
-
- Scanning is dialing a large number of telephone numbers in the hope
- of finding interesting carriers (computers) or tones.
-
- Scanning can be done by hand, although dialing several thousand
- telephone numbers by hand is extremely boring and takes a long time.
-
- Much better is to use a scanning program, sometimes called a war
- dialer or a demon dialer. Currently, the best war dialer available
- to PC-DOS users is ToneLoc from Minor Threat and Mucho Maas.
-
- A war dialer will dial a range of numbers and log what it finds at
- each number. You can then only dial up the numbers that the war
- dialer marked as carriers or tones.
-
-
- 21. Is scanning illegal?
-
- Excerpt from: 2600, Spring 1990, Page 27:
-
- -BQ-
- In some places, scanning has been made illegal. It would be hard,
- though, for someone to file a complaint against you for scanning since
- the whole purpose is to call every number once and only once. It's
- not likely to be thought of as harassment by anyone who gets a single
- phone call from a scanning computer. Some central offices have been
- known to react strangely when people start scanning. Sometimes you're
- unable to get a dialtone for hours after you start scanning. But
- there is no uniform policy. The best thing to do is to first find out
- if you've got some crazy law saying you can't do it. If, as is
- likely, there is no such law, the only way to find out what happens is
- to give it a try.
- -EQ-
-
- It should be noted that a law making scanning illegal was recently
- passed in Colorado Springs, CO. It is now illegal to place a call
- in Colorado Springs without the intent to communicate.

- 23. What are the DTMF frequencies?
-
- DTMF stands for Dual Tone Multi Frequency. These are the tones you

- button is the sum of the column and row tones. The ABCD keys do not
- exist on standard telephones.

- Notes:
-
- [C1] - Means code used for Cellular One service
- [1] - for cellular in Pittsburgh, PA A/C 412 in some areas
- [2] - indicates that you are not local and maybe how to reach you
- [3] - found in Pac Bell territory; Intercom ring causes a distinctive
- ring to be generated on the current line; Hold keeps a call
- connected until another extension is picked up
- [4] - applied once before each call
- [5] - A.C.R. blocks calls from those who blocked Caller ID
- (used in C&P territory, for instance)
- [6] - cancels further return attempts
- [M: *xx] - alternate code used for MLVP (multi-line variety package)
- by Bellcore. It goes by different names in different RBOCs.
- In Bellsouth it is called Prestige. It is an arrangement of
- ESSEX like features for single or small multiple line groups.
-
- The reason for different codes for some features in MLVP is that
- call-pickup is *8 in MLVP so all *8x codes are reaasigned *5x
