-= Blue Boxing =- ---- ATTENTION ALL AUSTRALIANS!!! ---- Approximately 1 month ago we found we were no longer able to blue-box. The common knowledge was that it was dead ..... this is not true!!! OTC (The lovely company we charge our calls to!) decided to make things difficult for us! They have made two main changes to blue-boxing! Follow these instructions and the world of blue boxing will again be open to us all!! 1) The dialup we were all using ( Hawaii - 0014-881180 ) now has a new rotating trunk system! This means they have several different numbers which your call is diverted through! Unfortunately only a few have the facilities to make blue-box possible. From my testing I believe that only about 5 out of a possible 20 work! So if you would like to blue-box a call you will need to ring back several times until you find the right one. (Simply just redial and if you seize and it hangs up on you CALL BACK!! or if it works - WELL DONE!) 2) Up until blue-boxing appeared to die, the international exchanges accepted a variety of tones which were within the range (+-25 Hz) of the tones needed to seize the lines. eg: OLDER METHOD!!! - Seize #1 - 2400+2600 (180 ms duration, 160ms delay) & Seize #2 - 2400+2400 (240 ms duration, 700ms delay) This is where the main change has taken place!!! The tones now required have been changed slightly, and due to new equipment the tones need to be almost EXACTLY right (+-5 Hz) to seize the lines!! After a lot of trial and error I have found these tones to work perfectly!! NEW METHOD!!!!! - Seize #1 - 2390+2600 (150 ms duration, 165ms delay) & Seize #2 - 2410+2390 (225 ms duration, 600ms delay) So there you have it!!! Now we can all blue-box in peace! And remember these things: ** For Blue-Boxing to die OTC will have to change their entire phone system!! This will cost them a HUGE amount of money and is very unlikely to happen!!! Blue-Box will never die, only the tones will change! ** Their are NO Australian laws which forbid Blue-Boxing!! There is no Legal Way for them to charge you for the calls and even if they know you are doing it their is nothing they can do to prevent it!! ** If you are having trouble in making these tone modifications with the blue-boxer you are using (Some of them have the tone specs. hard-coded!), then try using TPB (The Phraud Box) or maybe WhiteBox! ** AMIGA Rulez! The Amiga Pirate Scene RULEZ! I.B.laMe. will never take over! +:+:+:+: Axe.L :+:+:+:+ (Have Axe will hack!) -*-*--*-*--*-*--*-*--*-*--*-*--*-*--*-*--*-*--*-*--*-*- -*-*- THIS FILE HAS PASSED THROUGH: -*-*- -*-*- -*-*- -*-*- T H E H O U S E -*-*- -*-*- -*-*- -*-*- ITALIAN BAD BOYS HQ 210 MEGZ ON LINE -*-*- -*-*- -*-*- -*-*- ONLY 0-0 DAYS WAREZ NOT MORE !!!!!! -*-*- -*-*- -*-*- -*-*- GIVE US A CALL AT: NODE0 39-409-45542 -*-*- -*-*- NODE1 39-409-46PRIVATE-*-*- -*-*--*-*--*-*--*-*--*-*--*-*--*-*--*-*--*-*--*-*--*-*- This file was downloaded from : Sysop: Bob Duncan ___ ___ ___ __-+-_____________________ _____ __-+- | ^| | / ^\ | \ _ _ ^ / \ | ^\ | | | |__| \___/ || \ / | | \ // /\ \\| \\| || | __ || | || _\/ | | /\/ / \ \\ |\ || | | | || || ||_/ \ | | \ \__/ / | \ || |___| |___|___|_________/ |___| \________/|___| \____| _______-+- ____ ___ ____ ______ _________ | _ ^\ \ ^\| | \ \ /^ ___| _ ^/ | |_\ \\___\ \| || ___\ \\/ / | ||_\__/ | _____/ / \ | || ___/ / \ / / | _|__ | | -+-/ /___\ | |_/ \ /___\ \ \____| |_/ \ |___| /________\|_[RAKIM]_/______\_\_______|________\ -+- -+- [>> THE BITSTOPPERS GHQ <<] NODE #1 +49(0)450-275263 : NODE #2 +49(0)450[ELiTE!] -= E N D =-
