The Beloved Red Box



                   The Beloved RedBox
                   ==================


   A RedBox is a Box that lets you make phree phone-calls from
phortress-phones (pay-phones). All you need to get is a tone dialer, Radio
Shack has a nice 33 memory one for about 24-25 bucks, or one that does not
have memory pre-sets for about 19-20 bucks, and a crystal with the
frequency of 6.49 or 6.5 or 6.5536 at the most, which will cost you
about5-6 buck at most. 6.49 is the very best one to get and will work the
best, although the others will work quite well.

   Now all that you have to do is switch the new crystal with the old one,
and your set. To use the new RedBox all you do is hit the star(*) key once
to equal one nickel, hit it five times and you get one quarter hit. So
basically for eachtime you hit the star(*) key you get one more nickel
added. With the memory model you can just pre-set one quarter and another
one that will take all the hits of the star(*) button for long distance or
whatever. Oh, bye the way, when you do this, hold the speaker of the
tone-dialer up to the phone.

    Hope this helps.
