SO-O-O YOU ASK WHATS NEXT???
AH-HA SAYS YE OLE BOOTLEGGER-
LET ME INTRODUCE YOU TO CHAPTER 1 OF CELLULAR PHREAKING!
QUOTING THE CAMPS 2001 CELLULAR SYSTEM:
"THE NORMAL ATTENDENT STATION IS SIMPLY A PUSH BUTTON TELEPHONE! CALLS REQUIRING ATTENDENT ASSISTANCE ARE ROUTEDT"$T$ONE! THE CELLULAR OFFICE MAY HAVE ARE REMOTE ATTENDANT EITHER BY USING A DEDICATED 2-WIRE VOICE FREQUENCY LINE OR BY CONFIGURING THE CELLULAR SWITCH TO AUTOMATICALLY DIAL UP A TELEPHONE # THROUGH AN EXISTING DIAL-OUT LINE."
THE DATABASE MAINTENANCE FUNCTION, BILLING FUNCTION, MAY BE REMOTED BY SIMPLY INSTALLING AUTO ANSWER 300 BAUD DATA MODEMS AT THE CELL & CENTRAL LOCATION. (AND IN YOUR HOME COMPUTER) SINCE NONE OF THESE FUNCTIONS REQUIRE FULL TIME ATTENTION, A NORMAL DIAL-UP LINE IS ENTIRELY ADEQUATE. (BOY-O-BOY)
THUS, SOMEONE AT THE CENTRAL LOCATION (OR ANYWHERE ELSE) CAN DIAL UP THE SYSTEM IN, SAY, BEAUMONT AND ADD A CUSTOMER TO THE SUBSCRIBER DATA BASE, OR DELETE ONE! (I LOVE IT)
PERIODICALLY, SHE CAN DIAL UP THE SYSTEM AND INSTRUCT IT TO DUMP ITS BILLING INFO INTO HER COMPUTER (OR YOURS) FOR BILL PROCESSING. A MAINTENANCE MAN CAN USE THE SAME MODEMS TO CHECK FOR ERRORLOGS, SYSTEM OPS, AND MANUALLY EXERCISE CERTAIN FUNCTIONS!
SEEMS LIKE THE WESTERN UNION MOBILE PHONES (JOHNSON MOD 1154) HAVE A COUPLE OF FEATURES THE MFG NEVER INTENDED! CHIP U1 IS THE SERIAL NUMBER ROM, WHILE CHIP U706 IS THE PROM THAT CONTAINS THE ID NUMBER, TELEPHONE NUMBER OF THE MOBILE, PAGE CHANNEL, HOME CELL, LOCKCODE, AND OTHER OPTIONS.
NOW, AFTER EXTENSIVELY READING THE MANUALS ON THIS UNIT, I DONT SEE ANY REASON THOSE 2 CHIPS CAN'T BE REPLACED WITH EPROMS PROGRAMED WITH ANY PHONE NUMBER YOU WANT!!!!
THIS SHOULD ENABLE THIS UNIT TO CALL AND RECEIVE CALLS FROM ANY PHONE # YOU WANT!!!! (WILL ALSO CHARGE CALLS TO ANY PHONE # )
THIS MAY TURN OUT BETTER THAN OWNING A WHOLE CENTRAL OFFICE (HEE-HEE)
