        -----Introduction-----
                                   Welcome fellow phone losers...your tour
guide will be the one and only JaDeD.  Since this is only my first issue of
the UPL zine you'll have to understand that this articles' gayness can be
due to lack of experience.  Anyways this article will cover some more
basics of beige boxing and hopefully touch on some points that the previous
article didn't.

        -----Basics of Beige Boxing-----

                                   For those of you who live in the city
and are not hicks who live out in the country, did you ever think that there
might be more controlling your phone then that beige box outside of your
house?  Well,  you were right.  However the box controlling your phone and
everyone else's in your neighborhood's phones is not really protected.  It
is usually on an accessible street,  not far from the curb.  Look for a big
box that has Telco inscribed on it,  it usually is about four feet above the
ground.  This is the area's Telco box.

                                  Now, a person would think, that this box
is completely secured and will definitely not be tampered with by a phone
loser like me....well, I'm afraid your very wrong.  Your local Telco thinks
that your lines should have no more protection then a weird looking bolt.
This thing can be undone with a special wrench or needle-nose pliers.
Unless you happen to look a lot like a telco serviceman, breaking into one
of these boxes might arouse suspicion, so don't be a retard.  A big part
of being a phone loser is just common sense.  A large amount of discreetness
can save you hours of trouble with the local doughnut eaters.

                                Once this box is opened you will feel right
at home.  The same kind of setup you have at home(black wire/red wire,
sometimes a jack) will be there.  These are all your neighbors' phone
connections.  Unplug one of these jacks and you might have yourself a new
enemie.  Connect your homemade handsetto a pair of terminals, and you have
instant access to that line.  Party time!

                               The system is easy to phreak, but far easier
to raise hell with.  Should one be evil enough, one could, rip out all of the
wires then bolt like a madman.  This would cause complete chaos and definitely
make you top on the neighborhood hitlist.  So, for the people that havn't
done shit to you, please don't go ruining the phone service for your whole
area just because you can.

        -----3 simple easy to follow tips-----

                               Also, people might get a little suspicous if
their phone line suddenly goes dead. And, if you are caught, the redial
button on your handset can turn into your worst nightmare.  So, for the
common phreaker, here is a list of things you can use as backup to ensure
a platoon of oinkers doesn't suddenly come around the corner.


  I. Line in use light - They sell these wonderful devices at Radio Hack for
about $12.00.  This is a box with a light on it - when the light comes on
when the line is in use.  Before using a line check it's vacancy with this
device.

  II. Tone Dialer without redialer or memory - If you are caught won't you
feel really stupid if the last number you phreaked is the number that shows
up when "redial" is pushed on your phone?  A tone dialer can save you all of
this trouble from happening.  Since the phone only remembers the last numbers
punched in on the numeric keypad,  it would be smart if you dialed all of
the numbers using a tone dialer.  Although laws are not very clear on the
matter you can pretty much be arrested for having a pair of alligator clips,
it's a lot better for you if they have no evidence.  Dialing with a tone
dialer is wise but dialing direct indicates you have an urge to meet your
cell mate bubba.  Don't say I didn't warn you.

  III. Logic - for all of you non-einsteins - DO NOT DIAL LINES ASSOCIATED
WITH YOU IN ANYWAY!  That includes your house, cell phone, girlfriend,
boyfriend(hey we just never know these days), your mommy, your lamo
friends, or any numbers constantly dialed by your home line.  Well now you
know, don't forget that they keep records of this kind of thing.  Also,
Don't forget to clean up after yourself.  Wearing rubber gloves wouldn't be
that bad of an idea, but not leaving your card helps a lot as well.  To sum
things up, you were never there, and should do everything in your ability
to make it seem that way.  That means closing the box when your done.
"I am just looking for my girlfriend officer" is not acceptable.
