"What the hell is a Sperm box?"  That's usually the first 
question I get when I talk about this simple creation.  It is 
a simple device that allows you to create an audio jack from an 
exposed phone box on the side of someone's house.  With this, 
you can plug in a microcassette recorder and record conversations, 
or just silently listen in with a pair of headphones. Also, the sperm
box can be used as a rock box to play music over your own phone lines, 
just hook up a radio or CD player.  :)  This simple box is also used 
as an adapter in many other boxes, but the exact structure was never 
clearly stated until now.  This box is great for beginners because 
of it's simplicity.


What You Need:
1)Two 6" wires (red and green)
2)Audio Jack (both stereo and mono will work)
3)Two Alligator Clips (with rubber covers)
4)Small container (Empty Chapstick containers work well)
5)Sodering Iron
6)Soder
8)Washer
7)Electrical Tape


Step One:

Strip the ends off both sides of your two wires, and attach alligator clips 
to one end of each wire, a red clip, and a green clip.  Now, attach the other ends of 
the wires to the audio jack.  It is very difficult to explain where to attach the wires 
due to the fact that there are many different jack designs.  Just experiment with the wires 
until you find which wires goes where.  This process should only take you a few minutes, and 
it's probably the most difficult process of building this box.


Step Two:

Once you have identified the placement of the wires, soder them into place, 
and set it aside to let it harden.  In the mean time, take your empty 
chapstick container, and remove the bottom twist dial by either pulling, 
or poping it off with a knife.  You can throw away this piece, because it 
is not necessary for the design.  Next, take the lid for the chapstick container, 
and make a slit down the edge of the cap.  Once you first slit is done, make 
another just beside the first, about 1/4 inch away from the first to creat a slot.  


Step three:

Drop the Audio Unit (Audio Jack and Wires with clips) into the chap stick container though
the top so the audio jack is facing down. Grab the jack with your fingers, and pull the cylindrical 
end of the jack though the hole.  Place a washer over the jack, then place a screw over the washer to 
hold the jack in position on the end of the container.  


Step four:

Gently put the cap on the end of the chapstick container, allowing the wires to escape through 
the slot you made in the cap.  Finally, wrap some electrical tape around the cap and tube to both 
keep the cap on, and give your sperm box a sleek look.  You should be able to push the wires back into
the slot for storage.

How do I use it?

Well, the Sperm box is very simple to use.  Just go to your victim's house, and locate the distribution
box for their telephone on the side of their house.  It's usually a gray box just a few feet above 
ground level.  Now, open up the box by pulling upward, and attach the green alligator clip to the 
green wire, and the red alligator clip to the red wire.  Plug in head phones, and you can listen in 
on conversations without being heard.  Also, you can hook up a microcassette recorder to record conversations
for whatever purpose you wish.  :)  If you want to use this as a rock box, simply attach it to your own
phone, and plug your audio output device into it.  This will play music over the phone line.  



Why Make a Sperm Box?

The Sperm box is ideal because it can be used with many other boxes such as beige and tan boxes.  
This is a valuble tool because of it's compact size (pocket size) and it can be incorperated into different 
boxes to save you the time of constructing the same adapter in different boxes.


Why the hell is it called a sperm box?!?!

Well, I named this device the sperm box because of the prototype's appearance.  Instead of using red 
and green wires with matching clip covers, I used white (It was the only thing I had around the house). 
These wires kinda looked like sperm.  :)
