The story of the Boronda Box...

Back in the day, when lil Simon and lil Af8e would sneak out of the house and night to run around wearing dark clothes, beige boxing the closest cross-back boxes to call porno numbers we had a dream. A dream that one day, there would be no wire hanging down from telephone pole, there would be no wire hanging out of the cross-back boxes. We just wanted a nice remote way of boxing. Now since we are capable of more than beige boxing we are fulfilling our dream. We decided to add more features than just remote calling etc...

Originally we were looking at using UHF, or FM bands for the broadcast medium. We decided to use 900mhz, until we could get a 2.xghz transmitter for a decent price.

As of now, Af8e has a prototype almost done, he just needs to go down to Radio Shack and get a resistor or something to bring down the voltage.

Whats known so far: The server will be entirely self sufficient and should be able to run completely off the voltage in the phonelines. Now, you may be asking, "won't those damn 5ESS/5ESS-2000 switches beable to pick up that there was a drop in millivolts and know that there is a "tap" on the line"? Yes, they will, but we have taken that in to account. Thats why we are going to regulate the voltage being used by the server to match that of a telephone (if that makes sense). You will have to attach it to a different pair, of course. As of right now, we are unsure on how much bandwidth will be achieved from a 900mhz transmission, but we hope it will be 14.4 or at least 9600...
