[HaBi 1]    Build a "T" Network for Fun and Profit

Build a "T" Network for Fun and Profit If you live or work near a pay phone, then you might have an excellent opportunity waiting for you. It's called the T network, and it gives you back your money after a phone call. There are many variations, but right now we'll explain how it works and the simplest way to do it. The pay phone stores your money, either to return it or to deposit it, depending upon whether a + or a - pulse of 130 volts is sent to the phone. The pulse is sent down both the red and green wires and returns to ground through the yellow or the black wires, sometimes both. These wires are in a thin cable usually running along the wall near the phone. In an inconspicuous way, carefully slice along the wire, exposing the 4 wires. Move the red and green wires out of the way, and cut the black and yellow wires, then strip off 3/4", of insulation from all four cut ends. Tie the Y & B on the phone side together, and do the same for the other pair. Touch the two twisted pairs together now, and dial direct a long distance call. When the operator comes on,deposit the amount she asks for. While talking to your friend, disconnect the two pairs, because after approximately 2 minutes and 40 seconds, the pulse will come to collect your initial deposit. However, the pulse will no longer be able to flow through the phone because you disconnected the ground wires. It's best to hang up when the operator comes on after 3 minutes and says "End of initial period, signal when through". Now wait to make sure another pulse doesn't collect your money, for at least ten seconds. Then pick up the phone again, and re-connect the wires. You will get a dial tone, so hang up and JACK POT, all your money will come down again. Since the phone company usually knows how much there should be in the phone at collection time, they will notice something amiss. However, you can pull this off for a few months and up to a few hundred dollars in calls and then be sure never to do it again, because if they find your broken wires, they'll stakeout the phone to catch you. Best do it for only 4 weeks and then stop for 6 months.
