SPIKE BOX

     AN EFFECTIVE MODEM WEAPON, ESPECIALLY ON CROSSBAR PHONE SYSTEMS. 
(WILL STILL OPERATE ON ESS BUT YOU WILL KILL PHONE SERVICE TO YOUR 
PREFIX FOR A FEW HOURS, AND EVERYONE TALKING WILL BE CUT OFF ON YOUR 
PREFIX AND THE ONE YOU CALLED) WHAT IS THIS DEVICE? IT'S A TESLA COIL.

     THE TESLA COIL WHEN PROPERLY USED WILL GENERATE LITRALLY THOU-
SANDS OF VOLTS AT VERY LOW AMPERAGE. (JUST THE RIGHT CURRENT TO BAKE 
SILICON CHIP COOKIES.)

    SET UP

1. DISCONNECT ALL PHONES FROM YOUR LINE. DISCONNECT ANSWERING DEVICES 
AND ANY DATA-TRANSMISSION DEVICES.

2. RUN A PRELIMINARY TEST ON THE COIL AND DISCONNECT NEARBY GROUNDED 
OBJECTS.  (LAMPS STEREOS, TV'S ETC...)

3. CONNECT ONE PHONE THAT YOU SEE FIT TO SUBJECT. (IT USUALLY DOES NOT 
DESTROY PHONES, BUT I HAVE SEEN THEM MELT OFF WALLS.)

4. CONNECT IRON OR STEEL BALLS TO THE GREEN AND RED WIRES OF YOUR 
CONNNECTED PHONE (THESE ARE THE LINE WIRES THAT GO INTO THE WALL.) L1 
AND L2 TERMINALS OF YOUR PHONE.

5. PUT ON A PAIR OF THICK RUBBER GLOVES AND SAFETY GLASSES.

6. CHARGE COIL TO AT LEAST 10,000 VOLTS. AN IDEAL SETTING IS AROUND 18 
TO 19 THOUSAND, BUT 10 WILL JUMP BELL'S LINE SURGE PROTECTORS.

7. HOLD METAL BALLS IN YOUR LEFT HAND.  (MAKE SURE THEY DO TOUCH EACH 
OTHER) WHEN THE COIL IS FULLY CHARGED, CLIP THE STEEL BALL CONNECTED 
TO THE RED WIRE TO THE BASE OF THE TESLA COIL AND HOLD THE OTHER METAL 
BALL AS FAR AWAY FROM THE COIL AS YOU CAN.

8. DIAL THE OFFENDING MODEMS NUMBER.

9. WHEN CONNECTED, MOVE THE METAL OBJECT CONNECTED TO THE GREEN WIRE 
WITHIN 2 FEET OF THE COILS TOP.

     -> DON'T BE AFRAID OF THE LITTLE BOLTS OF ELECTRICITY SHOOTING 
FROM THE TOP OF THE COIL...

10. WITHIN 3 SECONDS A BOLT OF LIGHTNING WILL SHOOT FORTH AT THE PHONE 
FROM THE HAND YOU ARE HOLDING THE BALLS IN.  [MISSING PART WHEN 
RECEIVED] THE GREEN CONNECTED METAL BALL. (HOLD ON TIGHT CAUSE IT'LL 
FEEL LIKE LOADS OF ANTS!) YOU WILL IMMEDIATLY HEAR MANY STRANGE 
OSCILATIONS TO THE CARRIER ON THE PHONE. THE LAST NOISE YOU WILL HEAR 
IS A POP! FROM THE PHONE. (THAT IS THE LAST CRY OF AGONY AS IT SHUTS 
DOWN.)

     CROSSBAR JUST DISCONNECTS. GUARANTEED TO FRY THE MODEM, THE 
COMPUTER AND ANY PERIPHERALS OR ANYONE WHO ANSWERS THE PHONE!
