02/06/99 12:13:02 - MESSAGE #942

Was listening to the local po-po last night... looks like they were gonna go onto some drug bust or something... and these two cops needed to yap to each other on the phone. so this one detective gives some cop his GSM phone number, stating, "it's a digital phone, so it's secure"... so this got me to thinking. with the ever-increasing popularity of GSM, especially in this area, is GSM monitoring possible? A quick look at Brian Oblivion's GSM info makes this appear like a supreme pain in the ass. Although some people seem to be developing ideas/tools to decode A-five encryption, these methods are only in the academic stages of implementation (i.e. not feasible yet). So I was wondering - what if it's possible to monitor a GSM data stream which would indicate the POTS number of the person on the other end? If one had this information, along with access to a DATU which served the exchange of the POTS number, wouldn't it be possible to monitor the conversation by finding the phone number that the GSM user called, then dialing into the appropriate DATU, entering the POTS number called, and enabling the audio monitor function? Yes, complicated, but far simpler than decrypting the conversation off-the-air. Anyone have any info pertaining to monitoring those GSM data streams? Send em here.

Um, yeah, any voltmeter will work, you can tell if someone's on the line that way. That's basically how "tap dectectors" work, they detect a drop in line voltage. That's why, if I were going to listen in, I'd get one of those Dracon handsets with the DataSafe feature, they draw so little power from the line that they are just about undetectable. But someone picking up the extension fone, that draws plenty of current and is easy to detect. I think there are circuits here and there that you can build that will turn on a LED or something when the other line's picked up.

As for having a Advanced license and never using it, give it a try, it's great! That's what I do, have an Advanced and hardly ever get on the air! You're scaring me, telling me that that CW was at 20WPM, I doubt I could copy at 5 WPM now!

1. the code test is on a tape. the VE will play it back for you, and you have to decipher the code, and then answer a multiple-guess test about what they talked about.

2. As far as radios, you can do whatever the fuck you want. You can build one from scratch. You can buy one from a store. You can modify an existing radio. The FCC doesn't have to certify radios for ham use.... i.e. you can't build your own frs radio or cb and use it legally, but you can build your own ham rig. If you are looking for a radio.... get either the FT-50 or the Icom T-8A. Check em out yourself. And you are right about not passing the code... if you take the Tech Plus test, and you don't pass the code, you still get a no-code tech license.

a no-code license (ticket) is how most people nowadays start out in ham radio... it gives you full operating priveliges on all amateur bands above 50mhz...... a good book to study for this test is the one you get in the shit shack..... forget the title, but they should have it... study that shit, then take the test.... 65 questions multiple guess..... its pretty easy....
btw.... ok, 900mhz cordless phones go from 902 up to about 928.... and so does the amateur 33cm band... so technically i could key up on a cordless freq and tell em to fuck off, cause i have primary operating priveliges in that band..... ??

What do I think is so great about that? Well, most people who are that antsy about getting their messages from their machines by calling in tend to be cellfone users too, and if you listen on your scanner and have your little DTMF decoder that you've gotten from Optoelectronics for $99, you can get Mr. Yuppie's lil' codez!

OK, I've come across many of these of different makes and what they are is a tone generator for accessing an answering machine over the phone. They do generate audio frequencies, usually in a nice beepbeepbeepbeep.... string of pulses, but I have encountered two problems:(1) They only generate one tone, and the coin signal for a payfone is a combination of two tones, and (2) these are as often as not locked into one frequency, there's a little self-contained oscillator in there, and so you can't change the freq. I had one for an old Code-A-Phone, and I could turn a pot inside and get different freqs, it was great fun to play with, I'd point it at friends, sweeping it across them and only pressing the button when it was pointing at them, saying "Loser Detector, Loser Detector...". Then I rigged it up with a pair of jacks for test leads and used it for a beep out box, lent it to a friend who fixes TV's, and he moved and lost it. Oh, well.

Ok, I'm sure a lot of you out there has stumbled across one of these things, but it was a first for me.

The other day I was at a friends house when he pulls this little black plastic box from a drawer (about the size of a micro-cassette recorder). It was specificaly designed to generate the tones made by payphones as you drop change into it.

It's called a Panasonic "Easa-Phone".
Model No. KX-A50
Panasonic called it a pickup remote controller.

It is a fairly simple device, with about four buttons; a playback/reset button, an OGM record button (if anyone knows what the hell OGM stands for please fill me in), a repeat button and a skip button.

The repeat and skip buttons both have the same functions - from what I could tell anyways ? If you pressing either one plays the magic music for your free calling pleasure.

Well, anyways like I said I'm sure I'm not the first person to get their hands on one of these. I just thought it was worth posting a few words about.

Hehe dGuy ask rbcp about his chmodding!

OK, here's some REAL tech! Anyone remember my posts about that "pizzafone" that I was dialing into and getting a list of "x.30" commands, and asking if anyone knew what the hell they are, and no one knew? Well, I haven't given up, (although like a dork I changed some parameters and now it's double-PW'd....) and I have found that x.25 and x.30 and shit are packet switching protocols, something like TCP/IP, these were first. And, I was at a Ham Radio Fest in Phoenix last weekend and buying shit like mad and one of the things I got was a book on Packet Radio, and it almost universally uses...... x.25!! They call it "ax.26" for Amateur x.25, it allows for callsigns instead of addresses and allows for open messages like CQ's, but basically this is PAYFONES set up on an x.25 network, which means it just HAS to be connected to other stuff! And I have a feeling there's a lot of x.25 shit out there, not protected at all, classic "security through obscurity"! A lot of this shit is called "frame relay" and there are whole magazines devoted to it, "frame" means "packet" and "relay" means sending 'em around. The easiest book to understand on this shit I've found so far is this Amateur Radio one, Gateway to Packet Radio or something, just get anything on Packet Radio you can find, and it will explain TCP/IP too, that's right, these fuckers are doing TCP/IP networks on the radio, no fone wirez at all!!

MCI (i think) has a new long distance gimmick so that you dont have to pay for long distance calls that are under 30 seconds, so couldn't you make a black box that just increased the line voltage every 25 seconds or so so that people with MCI who call you wouldn't be charged. the advantage to this over a normal black box would be that it would take the phone company a lot longer to detect anything if you were getting a new call every 30 seconds rather than having the phone ring for 15 minutes straight. tell me what you think.

TOPIC - Phreaking Motel Phones
DATE - 11/13/98 19:50:35
FROM - MMX Killa 914 NPA (NY Metro)

Hello all,
One thing that you have to remember is that Motel phones are on a PBX. Now, the PBX's outgoing lines either do one of two things. They can either:
1) Have the PBX key unit record your room number before outpulsing the call.
2) Subscribe to a form of telephone company billing where the individual phone's location (room number) is listed next to the number called. In this case, the PBX's outgoing line number would still be used to dial the call.

As you should know, PBXs usually have a digit that's reserved for "give me an outgoing line". Usually this key is 8 or 9. Remember that sometimes, the Motel owner can be smart (what a thought!) and set the PBX to not use any particular outdial code. Consider this first before I move on: This motel owner will probably make a 15% commission on this call, since the rates from sleazy companies like OCI will usually exceed 20c per minute. Naturally, they don't want you to think anything odd is going on when you dial 0-914-623-6725 and punch in your calling card number. They make everything sound nice and neat, and since most people don't really listen to what's going on, they'll ignore the OCI branded audio message when they start their call. In short: no outdial code + regular phone + pricey calls = big money for everyone.

Want to know a neat trick? If the phone doesn't tell you to dial any digits before a call, try dialing 9 or 8 first. Did anything happen? No? Oh well. Hey, wait a second, you're probably saying. There are more tones than just 0-9 * and #! What do the others do? Well, I'm glad I asked. A little known use of the silver box is that those tones are sometimes used as control and signalling tones in a PBX system. In fact, I've stayed at three seperate motels (out of about 10) that used the '9' to get an outside line, and after the '9', it would still limit your call (ie no 900, 0-700, or 877(?)). I tried playing my silver box tones into the first PBX I was at, and it gave me a similar response to dialing '9': dialtone (PBX), '9', click, dialtone (still PBX). I tried dialing various numbers, and they all worked! Apparently, the 'D' tone made this particular PBX drop to an untrapped dial tone. Try out the silver box tones on ANY phone that you come in contact with. Some CO's do VERY interesting things like that!

If you didn't understand the point of this message, remember these tips:
* Dial '9', or if you need to anyway, dial another '9'.
* Try your silver box tones
* Try numbers not listed on the phone (7, *, #, etc).
* Experiment, experiment, experiment.

I've got to admit, I've never seen anything on phreaking motel fones in the hacking literature, and it's something that needs figuring out badly! Those fuckers take $20 or more just to make the smallest call, while redboxing is basically going through all kinds of hassle to take a dollar or two, a way to phreak a motel fone would save $20 or more.

Sorry, Nope, I dont think so. I'm too paranoid to go to the pioneer square (I think thats where there held) and talk in person. No really, I have been too busy or totaly forgot about the times/dates. And it had kinda developed into a habbit. On a different note, after reading the info on how caller ID works, I thought 'What if we could transmit a tone sequence to the ID box that was stronger then the modem's transmition.' I started working, and after a little while (5 minutes with BASIC) I came out with a random 1100/2200 scrambler that worked over the speaker. I tested it, and it kinda worked. Anyways, I continued with speeding up the speaker timing to match the 1200 baud transmition from the phone company, and I also started working on a way to specify what was sent over the line (Someone elces #. not just error!) After I figure that out, I'll hook up basic to check the ports for modems and have a key delayed start sequence. It should all be out after the start of 1999. Also, the Macintosh version is in the works, released as version 1 along with version 2.0 on the PC side. Lastly, Axehead has a point.

ok, i guess this would be the best forum to mention this in, if not then feel free to scold me. anyway i was numbing my brain watching tv a few days ago and some commercial for MCI (i think) came on about how they now offer a service where you dont have to pay for calls that are under 30 seconds. so then i remembered about the black box (a box that keeps the voltage on a phone line high so that it seems to the phone company as if the phone is still ringing while you're actually talking) this allows for people to call your house without paying long distance bills, but the drawback is that if you talk for any length of time the phone company gets suspicious if the phone appears to be ringing for half an hour straight. so anyway, would it be possible to make a box similar to a black box to take advantage of this new MCI gimmick, it could raise the voltage about every 30 seconds so that it seems like a new phone call everything 30 seconds and your friend with MCI doesn't get billed.
tell me what you think/if it's possible.
oh and if someone already had this idea sorry, i dont mean to steal your shit (it seems like kind of an obvious idea to me)

This is a copy of the data sheet picked up at the Rockwell
booth at the COMDEX show.INTRODUCTION
Calling Number Delivery (CND), better known as Caller ID, is a
telephone service intended for residential and small business
customers. It allows the called Customer Premises Equipment
(CPE) to receive a calling party's directory number and the date
and time of the call during the first 4 second silent interval in
the ringing cycle. The customer must contact a Bellcore Client
Company to initiate CND service.
According to Pacific Bell representatives, the following states
and district currently support CND service: Delaware, District
of Columbia, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine,
Maryland, Nebraska, Nevada, New Jersey, Oklahoma, Tennessee,
Vermont, Virginia, and West Virginia.
The following states are scheduled to support CND service by
April, 1992: Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Illinois,
Indiana, Iowa, Massachusetts, Mississippi, New Hampshire, New
York, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oregon, Rhode Island,
and South Carolina.PARAMETERS
The data signalling interface has the following characteristics:
Link Type: 2-wire, simplex Transmission Scheme: Analog, phase-coherent FSK
Logical 1 (mark) 1200 +/- 12 Hz Logical 0 (space) 2200 +/- 22 Hz
Transmission Rate: 1200 bps
Transmission Level: 13.5 +/- dBm into 900 ohm load
(I have copied this data as presented. I believe the
transmission level is meant to be -13.5 dBm.)PROTOCOL
The protocol uses 8-bit data words (bytes), each bounded by a
start bit and a stop bit. The CND message uses the Single Data
Message format shown below.Channel Carrier Message Message Data Checksum
Seizure Signal Type Length Word(s) WordSignal Word Word
CHANNEL SEIZURE SIGNAL
The channel seizure is 30 continuous bytes of 55h (01010101)
providing a detectable alternating function to the CPE (i.e. the
modem data pump).CARRIER SIGNAL
The carrier signal consists of 130 +/- 25 mS of mark (1200 Hz) to
condition the receiver for data.MESSAGE TYPE WORD
The message type word indicates the service and capability
associated with the data message. The message type word for CND
is 04h (00000100).MESSAGE LENGTH WORD
The message length word specifies the total number of data wordsto follow.
DATA WORDSThe data words are encoded in ASCII and represent the following
information:o The first two words represent the month
o The next two words represent the day of the month
o The next two words represent the hour in local military time
o The next two words represent the minute after the hour
o The calling party's directory number is represented by the
remaining words in the data word field
If the calling party's directory number is not available to the
terminating central office, the data word field contains an ASCII
"O". If the calling party invokes the privacy capability, the
data word field contains an ASCII "P".CHECKSUM WORD
The Checksum Word contains the twos complement of the modulo 256
sum of the other words in the data message (i.e., message type,
message length, and data words). The receiving equipment may
calculate the modulo 256 sum of the received words and add this
sum to the reveived checksum word. A result of zero generally
indicates that the message was correctly received. Message
retransmission is not supported.EXAMPLE CND SINGLE DATA MESSAGE
An example of a received CND message, beginning with the message
type word, follows:
04 12 30 39 33 30 31 32 32 34 36 30 39 35 35 35 31 32 31 32 51
04h= Calling number delivery information code (message type word)
12h= 18 decimal; Number of data words (date,time, and directory number words)
ASCII 30,39= 09; SeptemberASCII 33,30= 30; 30th dayASCII 31,32= 12; 12:00 PM
ASCII 32,34= 24; 24 minutes (i.e., 12:24 PM)
ASCII 36,30,39,35,35,35,31,32,31,32= (609) 555-1212; calling
party's directory number51h= Checksum Word
DATA ACCESS ARRANGEMENT (DAA) REQUIREMENTS
To receive CND information, the modem monitors the phone line
between the first and second ring bursts without causing the DAA
to go off hook in the conventional sense, which would inhibit the
transmission of CND by the local central office. A simple
modification to an existing DAA circuit easily accomplishes thetask.
(I will mail the Rockwell data sheet, which includes the
suggested schematic diagram.)MODEM REQUIREMENTS
Although the data signalling interface parameters match those of
a Bell 202 modem, the receiving CPE need not be a Bell 202
modem. A V.23 1200 bps modem receiver may be used to demodulate
the Bell 202 signal. The ring indicate bit (RI) may be used on a
modem to indicate when to monitor the phone line for CND
information. After the RI bit sets, indicating the first ring
burst, the host waits for the RI bit to reset. The host then
configures the modem to monitor the phone line for CNDinformation.
(I'm skipping some Rockwell-specific information here.)
According to Bellcore specifications, CND signalling starts as
early as 300 mS after the first ring burst and ends at least 475
mS before the second ring burstAPPLICATIONS
Modem manufacturers will soon be implementing new modem features
based on CND information as this service becomes widelyavailable.
Once CND information is received the user may process the
information in a number of ways.
1. The date, time, and calling party's directory number can be displayed.
2. Using a look-up table, the calling party's directory number
can be correlated with his or her name and the name displayed.
3. CND information can also be used in additional ways such as for:
a. Bulletin board applications b. Black-listing applications
c. Keeping logs of system user calls, or
d. Implementing a telemarketing data baseREFERENCES

All I know is that caller id info is as binary info. A mark which is "1" is 1200 +/- 12 Hz and a space "0" is 2200 +/- 22Hz. A friend and I are working on sending 2200 Hz thru a phone line to scramble it. The caller id would probably say error.

Like in some of the other forums there's a bunch of people with cool suggestions that may spark a small discussion, and you could end up finding something, but mostly you have people coming up with these great ideas but no one ever takes them on...apparently because the person who posted it either doesn't want to go experiment or doesn't care too much about their idea in the first place.
That's my two cents.

Yo guys I waas at a mall a couple of weeks ago and I found this little device that has a mic and an earphone plug, your supposed to use it as somekind of spying gear, it's pretty small and looks like a pager, so instead of buying it ($15), i stole it =P
works pretty good too, ok now the fun part ...I was thinking if some one can find away to listen to people remotely....like hooking up an antenna and earphones you know those wireless earphones....if some can make them samll enough to be hidden...i'll get a pic of it when i get the time...just email me if you have more questions

I was thinking... has anyone ever thought about cutting out the speaker to thier red box
and wirind it to the mic input of one of those handset amplifiers you can buy from radio
shack? It would be a lot less conspicuous if you could hold the red box in your pocket,
make the tones and keep on talking like nothing was wrong.

I want to make a box that like has a button so that when I'm annoyed at the person on the other end of the line it sends a big long penis through the fone line and snaps the guy in the forehead leaving a really big, red, embarrassing mark that stays for a day or two. Then you could like prank people at 4:00 in the morning with it and be like "HI!, *SNAP!*" then they'd be like "Fucking kids, quit playing on the fone!" You could call it the Holly-Box
