Well, my reason for writing this version is because of the fact that once finished constructing the box, the file does not contain very much information on usage. It is because of that reason that this file was written. By the way, call Ground 0 at 988-4426. Thank you. -> What is the function of a Day-Glo box? Well, a Day-glo box will let you place calls for free with no time limit, no possibility of a wiretap, and the calls can be placed from anywhere in the world. Too good to be true, you say? Well, read on. -> How does a Day-glo box work? A day-glo box is very easy to make, and very inexpensive to build. It works like this: On the outside of every home that has a phone, there is something called "the outside connection box," which is where the house is connected to Ma Bell's network. This ingenious device connects to a) your phone, b) the victim's outside box. You should be starting to get the idea. -> How do I construct a day-glo box? Materials necessary: 1. Radio Shack modular conversion jack 2. A small experimenter's box (optional) 3. 1 foot of red wire. (better to overkill) 4. 1 foot of green wire. (same as above) 5. 2 medium alligator clips Well, in order to construct this box, you will need all of the above materials. Note that your wire does not necessarily have to be red or green, but it is necessary that you be able to tell them apart. Also, you might want to use thick, easily bent wire (audio hookup wire works best) instead of bell wire. Now, on to the construction. 1. Remove the actual modular jack from the conversion box. This can be done by pushing inward and then up, or you can just cut the plastic. 2. Remove the black and yellow wires from the jack. You can either clip these or rip them out. 3. To your newly isolated jack, add the 1 foot wire extensions to the respective wires. Soldering and then wrapping the connections with electrical tape works best. 4. Next, solder the alligator clips to the extended wires. If you do not wish to solder them, then just wrap the clips with the wire. 5. Now, place this newly made contraption into a box (optional). You may need to drill a few holes, and possibly remove the alligator clips, but you should have read this file first, anyway. -> Wiring Diagram Modular--------------Red-----+----Extension wire---------< Alligator Jack --------------Green---+----Extension wire---------< Clips Pretty easy, eh? -> Usage of the day-glo box The day-glo box will work with any phone. First, you need to locate a house that has a phone. Next, (it's preferable to do this at night) go up to the and locate the outside connection box. Pop the cover off. Locate prong 3 and prong 4. You will attach the green wire clip to prong 3. The red wire clip will go to prong 4. Now, plug your phone (preferably a trimline or ranger) into your modular plug. You may now either listen in on the call (wire tap) OR you may call out to anywhere in the world. If you are really daring, you can bring your computer with you. Note: This box may also be used in conjunction with the lunch box in order to make a perfect phone bug. -> Other neat things you can do with your new box: 1: Call 976 numbers. This should be done very frequently. Also, I find that after finding the victim's outside box, several calls to the gay hotline will have interesting after-effects. Namely, his parents wondering about him. 2: Alliance teleconferencing can be accomplished quite easily. Try it! Call 0-700-456-1000. Or, tell the operator you'd like to initiate a conference. 3: Of course, you should place several calls to other countries. This can be accomplished by looking in the front of your white pages for the various country and city codes. You should be able to follow the directions provided in there. -> Using your box at apartments/community connection boxes: Have you ever wondered what those 6ft tall cabinets with the bell logo on them were for? Well, if you've never seen them, here's a quick description: They are 6ft tall by 3ft wide, and painted the dull phone company green. They can be opened quite easily with a 7/16ths inch socket wrench. After turning the bold over the handle, turn the handle to the right and pull. It should open, displaying over 100 different lines. Occasionally, you can find tech. manuals and test kits inside. They are usually located near phone lines. Okay, now, once you have opened one of these calling cabinets, locate the line of your choice. You will have to take out both the orange and the white insulated screws. The purple and white wires should come off along with the screws. The lines go out to the house, and the screw posts are the actual line. Now, you should clip the alligators to the posts, with one part of the clip on the insulation, and on.]Now, you should clip the alligators to the nep parteli. Oh, if you want the home to remain connected, clip the wires inside the hole using the alligator clips. By the way, the red terminal on your box goes to the orange post, and the green one to the white post... if that doesn't work, reverse the connection. Now, to find out the number you have taken over, dial 380-55555555. Yes, that's eight fives. A computer voice should tell you what number you are on. heh. I hope you can take it from here. Oh, in apartments, you can find the calling cabinet in the basement... remember, this is not your line, so do anything you want. Call the President or something. Disclaimer: I, John F.
