The remnants of an incompletely filtered out-of-band signal?

806-765-....
Synthesized Voice: "This is LBB 131.70" followed
by some DTMF *'s. Hitting 3* produced a "Testing, Track 3"
message.
Recorded 2003/10/05 from 250.
Update 2004/03: Extensive googling has turned up some interesting facts about
this "mystery number". For starters, the 806 area code includes Lubbock, Texas.
This is relevant because LBB happens to be the FAA airport code for Lubbock.
131.70 is the frequency used by Southwest Airlines for ground operations and dispatch
at many airports, including KLBB. So, this line is likely a maintenance dialup for a
VHF repeater owned by Southwest at Lubbock International Airport. Some of the astute among you
may point out that L B B is pronounced in English rather than in phonetics (Lima Bravo Bravo) as would be used by
both aviators and radiomen, but remember that this is a dialup and this message is almost certainly only
heard on the line. The actual number of this line is no longer being listed here due to the possibility that
messing with it could cause possible safety problems.

alt.phreaking in recent months as to whether a Nortel
Millennium payphone is capable of ringing. The answer, of
course, is yes, and this file is the sound the phone makes.
We at Whirlwind believe that there is a progressive
campaign going on in many areas to make all payphones
outgoing-only, which means that they are connected to phone
lines that cannot accept incoming calls (callers get a
recording). This of course is a line setting and not a
property of the Millennium (or any other) phone, and while
the phone companies have made *most* Nortel Millenniums
undialable, there are a few which they "forgot". This one
is at 250-389-9075.

REAL Red Box tones!
This is as real as it gets, boys and girls - these are
the tones from an actual GTE/Automatic Electric ACTS
Payphone. Note the poor quality of the speech compared
with the excellent quality of the tones - there is a
distortion device on the handset mic! That is how they
prevent red boxers in 604/250! Note also that these are
the standard 1700/2200 tones, not plain 2200 as some in
alt.2600 say Canadian phones are supposed to use. By the
way, the phone kept my coins. This file cost me 65 cents
to make! To paraphrase TAP, "BC Tel is a cheap mother!"
