- Howdy, folks. Welcome to ATI60. We have a lot of cool stuph
- for you: letters from readers, humor, instructions on how to make a
- nuclear weapon (just kidding, actually an article on how to make a
- pirate TV station !!@), and other fascinating information.
- Well, Ross Perot's gone and done it. Dropped out. Couldn't
- take the pressure. Don't all of you who were for him feel foolish?
- Since we're so close to New York City, ATI was going to crash
- the Democratic Convention and give you an "insider's view" of the
- antics. But, we decided it wasn't worth the bother unless we could get
- into that "smoke-filled room" and actually see whether or not 'ol Billy
- was inhaling.
- We won't have the New World Order article for you this time
- around, as I fell into so much information while researching it, that
- it will take longer to produce. But, I can assure you that you'll
- be rocked and shocked when you read our forthcoming article.
- In the meantime, do pick up a copy of this book: _En_Route_
- _to_Global_Occupation_ by Gary Kah. ISBN # 0-0910311, Library of
- Congress catalog # 91-71072. You can order it for $12.45 ($9.95 plus
- $2.50 for p/h) from For The People, 1-800-888-9999 (visa/mc orders) or
- send a check/mo. to For The People, 3 River St., White Springs, FL 32096,
- U.S.A.
- There IS a conspiracy for a New World Order (world gov't),
- and the aformentioned book explains how. Read it.
- And, read on...

- Re: * Social INsecurity*
-
- If you would like some more figures to help you feel INsecure, you might
- want to check out the book _The Coming Economic Earthquake_ by Larry
- Burkette. I am a pretty fundamentalist type Christian, but we have in
- common with ATI the fact that I think we have a more or less self-destructive
- government on our hands, and I'd like to help change that! Burkette's
- book may only be in Christian bookstores right now, because he is best
- known as a Christian Financial Planner (he gives EXCELLENT financial
- advice, differing from the norm only in the fact that he says we have
- a responsibility to God to be good stewards of what he has given us...).
-
- Anyway, Larry went out and did a bunch of research, and then worked the
- statistics out, and has some interesting stuff like how many years it
- will be before the interest payments on the national debt are higher each
- year than our entire annual budget is right now. Not too many years away.

- LETTER #2

- Re: Yugoslavia (Bosnia & Serbia)
-
- Well, the situation in Bosnia is now even worse than anyone
- expected. Serbian army captured their president (=Alija Izatbegovic)
- and released him after whole world accused such act, yesterday they
- destroyed many buildings in Sarajevo (capital city of Bosnia) - mostly
- churches, and cultural objects, they demolished the central Post (so,
- all phone lines are unusable - they expect to fix the 7000 phone lines
- in next 3 months, all other phone lines will be fixed in THREE years (if
- the war stops soon, of course), they are shooting at television building
- (they want the Bosnian television to stop their program and transmit
- Serbian television), Serbian army is shooting at European observers
- (and killed one last Sunday) and at UN Peace forces. And more interesting
- thing for readers of ATI: since March 1992 it is FORBIDDEN to import modems
- into Serbia - the government found out that people can express their feelings
- about the war via modem and want to stop this. The communication with
- Sarajevo goes via Packet Radio (perhaps it is interesting - when Serbian
- army attacked Dubrovnik, one of Packet Radio hackers used to send us
- mail, lists of needed medicines and such via Packet Radio BBS - he didn't
- have electricity and used to run the thing using home-made power generator
- while hiding in shelter). BTW, Dubrovnik republic was the first republic
- to recognize independent America.
-
- I'll try to provide more information. BTW, new GreenNet/FidoNet conference
- started (=YUGO.ANTIWAR).
- Best regards from Slovenia,
- Dalibor

- Subject: Moscow modem hunt
-
- The Moscow Modem Hunt
-
- an article by Kirill Maslentsin in COMMERSANT Weekly,
- No. 13, March 23-30 1992, p.14
- published by the Moscow Weekly Commersant.
-
- Starting from April 1st, the Commercial Service of the Moscow
- City Telephone Network (Proizvodstvennoe Ob'edinenie MGTS) will
- detect the unregistered modems. The experts doubt that this
- action, objectively necessary, can be carried out quickly,
- because the Commercial Service of the MGTS finds itself yet in a
- stage of organization.
-
- According to Alexander Shambazov, Deputy Director of the PO MGTS,
- approximately 100,000 modems are currently in use in Moscow.
- Shambazov was unable to say how many of them had been registered.
- Up-to-date, every Telephone Service node in Moscow used to
- register the modems separately (usually, at owner's request), and
- MGTS does not have the consolidated information.
-
- The Commercial Service, created recently by the MGTS, will
- compile the general database on modem owners. This department
- will detect the "illegal" modems whose owners do not pay for the
- use of these devices.
-
- In Mr. Shambazov's opinion, companies which run phone-based
- communications networks, sell information contained in databases,
- and the companies who manufacture and sell modems, will help to
- detect the "illegal" modems. The MGTS will request these
- companies to submit their user lists. It is not excluded that
- MGTS will obtain the required information, because all the
- companies implied are interested to come to terms with the Telco.
- Shambazov said that MGTS has the modem detection equipment.
-
- The experts consider that the "modem hunt", on its early stage,
- won't be very efficient, because the MGTS Commercial Service is
- still being organized, and its structure is weak. Nevertherless,
- one may expect that the frightened users of the "illegal devices"
-
- According to the information obtained, the offenders won't be
- fined. They'll simply be urged to conclude a contract (if the
- modem is certified). The usage fee will be 1296 R/year for the
- self-financed companies, and 324 R/year for the organizations
- financed by the State budget. But if a company uses a modem for
- commercial purposes (for example, selling information), it will
- have to pay 50,000 rubles per year. Nothing was said with regard
- to modems owned by individuals.
-
- Phone of the PO MGTS: (095) 299-28-85.

- Another Wall!!
-
- Disenchantment with the major political parties - cynicism
- scaling new heights - rumblings amongst the peasants - turmoil
- etc. etc. ...
-
- You would THINK that when questions multiply and problems pile
- up that new ideas and re-assessments of our condition are
- welcomed! Well, think again because it ain't necessarily so.
-
- What happens when a writer in a country like Australia sits down
- and provides just that, material which is based on research,
- experience amongst the peoples of this planet, and a probing
- mind that is - let's assume this for the moment - objective and
- commonsensical.
-
- Would the result - in this case, two books so far - find its way
- to the public? No. Not if the political network in the above
- mentioned country can help it. Because now one is up against the
- invisible system of politicians, colluding academics, and even
- some "independent" editors of the press, who all come together
- in a glorious constellation that puts walls where we need open
- fields and potholes where smooth roads should be.
-
- And so we continue: further disenchantment with the major
- political parties, cynicism scaling new heights, etc. etc. etc.
- - see 1st paragraph.
-
- Want to know the full story? Put your postal address into my
- mailbox and I'll send you all the sordid details (it's 13 pages
- long).

- UPi has once again returned and it no longer the shit group it used to be in
- the past. UPi is a group that puts out newsletters that deals with the H/P/C/A
- world. In the past, our newsletters averaged only 1 article in length (which
- in size means a range of 25-50k) but now in the all new UPi newsletter we have
- decided to expand it so it will contain more articles (and all quality articles
- which means no more of those little shitty files that contains useless
- information). What we are looking for are quality members and sites that are
- willing to contribute to the group and support the group. We are also looking
- for people who can freelance write for us too. We are looking for people who
- are experienced in electronics and chemistry, and as well as any of the P/H/C/A
- topics. If you would like to join UPi either as a site or a member or become a
- freelance writer for us please send mail to The Lost Avenger via internet

- Anyway, we heard that Woody Allen was making a movie called
- "New York Stories II", to follow his "New York Stories" movie, which was
- composed of 3 independent parts (short stories). We thought "Slipping On
- Chunks" would be a great part of "New York Stories II". So we sent it in
- to him. We said we would set it to music and it would be really c00l!
- We haven't heard from Woody yet, but I'm sure he got a kick out of it!!!

- How to Build Your Own
- Underground Television Transmitter
- Using Commercially Available Parts
-
- Outlaw Telecommandos
-
-
-
- Yes, for some time now it has been possible to
- construct a clandestine television station, which you
- can operate from your Telecommando Lair, or modify
- for Mobile Media Guerrilla campaigns.
-
- We have named this device the Snow Box, due to its
- cool nature, and the snow seen on blank television
- channels waiting to be commandeered.
-
- To put together a TV station you will need this stuff:
-
- A VCR or Camcorder with video or RF outputs
-
- A Ham Radio 6-meter Band Linear amplifier
- (This boosts the RF signal from the VCR for
- broadcasting)
- (The Linear Amp should have a bandwidth of 6
- MHz for best results)
- A cable television RF distribution amplifier
- may also be used.
-
- Coaxial cable with UHF connectors
- (Connects the Linear Amp to the Antenna)
-
- A cable-TV patch cable with an F-connector and a UHF
- connector
- (To connect the RF signal to the Linear Amp)
- (F-connectors are the small ones used with cable
- TV)
- (UHF connectors are the large ones used for Ham
- Radio)
-
- If your VCR does not have RF outputs:
- An external RF modulator (converts video to
- channel 3,6,12 etc.)
- a cable with RCA connectors (a standard stereo
- cord is ok)
-
- A 6-meter Ham radio antenna.
-
- If you do not have a pre-made 6-meter antenna:
- About 20 feet of strong wire
- 3 ceramic antenna insulators
- another UHF connector
-
- Likely places to get the linear amplifier, connectors
- and cables is a Ham Radio swapmeet, a Ham club news-
- letter's classified ads, a Buy-Sell-Trade paper like
- The Recycler, or at a store specializing in Ham gear.
- RF modulators are available at specialty video stores,
- or major VCR dealers.
-
- Setting Up the Transmitter:
-
- Using a VCR with RF out:
-
- [VCR/RF]F------U[Linear Amp]U-------U[Antenna]
- weak RF Power RF
-
- Using an External RF Modulator:
-
- [VCR]R--R[RFModulator]----U[LinearAmp]U----U[Antenna]
- video weak RF Power RF
-
- Diagram Symbols:
-
- U UHF-connectors (Ham radio)
- F F-connectors (cable TV)
- R RCA connectors (stereos)
- --- coax, cables, wires
- [] devices (name of device in brackets)
- <I> ceramic insulator (the kind with a hole at each
- end)
-
-
- Building The Dipole Antenna:
-
- wire wire
- <I>---------------------+<I>+----------------------<I>
- | |
- Short coax | |
- [U] UHF connector
-
- The antenna is set up much like a clothesline with the
- wires tethered straight out horizontally. The outer
- insulators are used to isolate the antenna from the
- tether lines, which should be rope or nylon cords
- for good results. The inner insulator isolates a gap
- between the two long wires of the antenna.
-
- The length of the wires used for the antenna is
- critical. Look up the length in feet for the channel
- you want to use in the table below & make each of the
- two long wires that length. As a rule of thumb, a wire
- half-wave antenna's length in feet is equal to 468
- divided by the frequency in MHz.

- For Further information: Look in the ARRL Handbook
- published by the American Radio Relay League for
- detailed plans & theory for antennas, transmitters &
- linear amplifiers. The info in that book can be used
- for setting up an underground AM or FM radio station.
-
-
- Public Education: Make a videotape of each step in the
- process of constructing your transmitter. Show this
- tape in your broadcasts, "For informational purposes
- only", of course.
-
- Short-burst zipping: From a fixed or mobile base of
- operation show short snippets of graffiti-like computer
- graphics, quick subliminal messages, images &
- suggestions, or brief phreaker manifestos. Commercials
- are an opportune time to break into TV broadcasts.
-
- Live call-in shows: Using a Cheese Box, or other device
- for receiving untraceable phone calls and a video
- camera do a live call-in show. Encourage people to call
- in using Red, Blue, and other phreaking boxes.
-
- Cable TV Piracy: With modifications it may be possible
- to feed the power RF signal directly into a cable TV
- system, overriding cablecasts or comandeering
- unused channels.
-
- Mobile Operation: Using storage batteries and a
- 110-volt inverter the transmitter may be modified for
- mobile use to avoid detection by the FCC during long
- broadcasts. Battery operated mobile linear amps and
- portable camcorders are also available.
