TAP No. 54 - Review of Exotic Weapons: An Access Book

Reviews ‘Exotic Weapons: An Access Book’ by Michael Hoy, describing it as a directory of suppliers and publishers rather than a how-to manual, and uses the review as a springboard for an editorial disavowing violence as counterproductive to political change. A short item points readers toward mail-order sources for lock picks and locksmithing tools. A hardware note describes a commercial MF (multi-frequency) tone-generator module that hobbyists could wire into blue box designs. The issue closes by publicly criticizing publisher Loompanics for distributing a Holocaust-denial title alongside its survivalist catalog, calling the book antisemitic propaganda.
IRDS PRESENTS A RCVILW OF
'EXOTIC WEAPONS - AN ACCESS
BY MICHAEL HOY
($4 from Loompanics)
BOOK"
The first thing that should be noted when
discussing this book is the fact that it is an
access
book - a 38 page reference that lists addresses of
suppliers and publishers.
It's not a book that tells
you how to do it.
Rather, it tells you where to go
for more information, You'll be extrenely dis
-appointed if you buy this book expecting plans and
diagrams on how to build all sorts of havoc
wreakiny devices.
lioy
divides his book into two parts,
General and Specific access. The former lists
the addresses of various periouicals, bool:s, and
publishing houses that deal with weapons in
general. Frankly, if you read TAP or LUNS (see later
note) you've probably heard of most of these places.
The second part of the book, Specific Access
is wore useful.
It is divided into sections
dealing with such sections as air guns, black:
powder firearms, boomerangs, electrical weapons,
oriental weapons and more. Lach section lists a
page or so of relevant addresses. This sort of
information is fairly difficult to find for the
average reader and thus would be worthwhile for the
weaponry buff.
We'd like to insert an editorial note. We
at IRDS believe that the use of violence in contemporary
Amerika is assinine.
When things get heavy (as
they may - look at Nazis in Chicago, Klan resuryence
Anita bryant, etc) perhaps.
but at this point
the trigger happy antics of CLA types are not only
immoral (attacks on civilians is no way to fight a
revolution) hut also stupia as they serve to goad
Big brother into bringing down more pressure, We're
into the NWLF jamming up thousands of parkinc
meters and YIP pieinys but regard violence as the
activitty of more barbaric elerents of our socicty
(like cops, politicians......).
So, to sum up - is Lxotic Weapons worth
the bux being asked?
Only if you're heavily
into weapons.

Research done at IRD’ indicates that TAP
readers may be interested in acauiring hard to
find tools such as lock picl:s and other
locksnithing supplies (for when you get locked
out of your house, right?).
\ell, we have
a definately cool source for goodies like picksets
Lockaid tools, car ignition cylinders pullers,
and more. The outfit is called Russel and Associates
Investigators, rite or call them at PO Lox 2461,
Tampa Florida 33601, Fone # 813-879-8581.
A catalog
free, Apparently they can also supply legit ID that
identifies the hearer as a private investiyator in the
State of Florida. Needless to say this sort of
credentials could be useful for paper trippers and
other mythical beasties. Thanx to LUNS for this info.
is
While we're on the subject, we're sad
to report that LUNS newsletter is no more.
Barry Reid explained that they needed more
time to devote to researching and writing books
they are planning to publish and were forced
to cluse down the newsletter. All we can say is
"look out!'
because when these folks go to
work they come up with some gems.

This ain't our department but we thought
you hardware phreaks would be interested in
the fact that there is a company producing
MF tone modules. Designed for interfacing to
TTL logic this little goodie could be very useful
to people designing computerized blue boxes.
It's called the MF Tone Generator CM7050 and goes
for a cool $75 per. Direct inquiries to:
Mitel Inc., St. Lawrence Industrial Park,
Ogdensburg, NY 13669 .
Phone # is 315-393-
1212, be prepared to look official...
In the DA file we have an untested Circuit for
a blue box using this module. Send a SASE
plus a stamp to reimburse us for copying
cost. ee
What's the story with Loompanics? we
ask because when leafing thru their latest
catalog we were shocked to see that they carry
a book called 'The lloax of the Twentieth Century.
This book, written by an associate Electrical
Engineering prof with a reputation as a
facist crackpot claims that the Nazi extermination
of 6 million Jews never took place. This is, of
anti-semitic pro-Nazi bullshit of the worst
kind and one wonders about Loompanic's
motivations in carrying this crap, Write ‘en
and ask...
It has been our feeling that many of
these Free Enterprise/Survivorist types are
just neo-facists. We don't mean to start
a big political arguement but you should
kuow that there are some anarcho-communist YIP
type phreaks too.
Until our next info packed column this is
the ‘software people' at IRDS saying: "hang
loose infophreaks, and keep those cards and letters
coming!"

telephone equipment to make
calls worth an estimated total
‘of $100,000 to such places as

HOW TO FIND ANY 800 NUMBER IN THE COUNTRY WITHOUT REALLY TRYING
BY
Napoleon Solo
BEFORE WE BEGIN TO LOOK FOR 800 NUMBERS, I MUST FIRST GET YOU FAMILIAR
WITH CERTAIN TYPES OF RECORDED ANNOUNCEMENTS SO YOU CAN IDENTIFY AND TELL
WHAT IS GOING ON, IN THIS WAY, YOU WILL BE ABLE TO TELL WHERE YOU ARE DIALING
TOLL MACHINE RECORDINGS? SOMETIMES REFERRED TO AS "JANE" RECORDINGS, APPARENTLY
BECAUSE THAT WAS THE NAME OF THE LADY WHOSE VOICE WAS ON THE RECORDING.
THERE ARE 3 TYPES YOU SHOULD BECOME AWARE OF! 1. "WE’RE SORRY, DUE TO EQUIPMENT
CONDITION, YOUR CALL BIDN’T GO THROUGH? WILL YOU PLEASE HANG UP AND TRY YOUR
CALL AGAIN LATER, OR DIAL YOUR OPERATOR, THIS IS A RECORDING 2132"
2. "WERE SORRY» ALL CIRCUITS ARE BUSY, WILL YOU TRY YOUR CALL LATER PLEASE?
THIS IS A RECORDING, 2132"
3, "BALTIMORE 4A INWATS TEST, 345, 232, THIS IS @ RECORDING 3012"
EXCHANGE RECORDINGS! ARE LIKE THIS# "THE NUMBER YOU DIALED HAS BEEN
DISCONNECTED, PLEASE CHECK WITH RIRECTORY ASSISTANCE..." ETC.
THE LAST RECORIING IS USEN TO DETERMINE WHICH "RANI" THE 800 NUMBER EXCHANGE
IS IN RELATION TO YOU. BAND S IS THE HIGHEST» AND GO DOWN TO BAND 1, WITH
HAND 1 THE SMALLEST CONCENTRIC AREA AND BAND 5 THE LARGEST (INCLUDES THE WHOLE
COUNTRY) INCLUDING HAWITs NOW JUST RECENTLY ADDED, THEY ARE TALKING AROUT
INCLUTNING ALASKA.
TO START OFFy YOU MUST FIRST LOCATE ALL THE VALID 800 PREFIXES ACCESSABLE
FROM YOUR AREA. THIS CHANGES SLIGHTLY FROM AREA TO AREA. ONCE THIS IS DONE
A LATER ARTICLE WILL SHOW YOU WHAT TO DO TO FINI) THE 800 NUMBER IN THAT AREA.
ITNWATS NUMBERS PROVITIE A SPECIAL SUFFEX (LAST FOUR TIGITS OF THE NUMBER)
TO TEST HOW FAR YOU ARE BY DETERMINING WHICH BAND THE NUMBER IS LOCATED,
THESE ARE “INWATS TEST NUMBERS", AROUT S-10 YEARS AGO, THESE USED TO GO
TO OPERATORS, RUT NOW THEY GO TO RECORDINGS, AND ARE USED TO DETERMINE
THE BANI. THESE RECORDINGS ALSQ INENTIFY THE LOCATION OF THE PREFIX AND
IS USER AS A GUITIE TO MAP OUT THE ENTIRE 800 NUMBER SYSTEM IN THE CUMFORTS
OF YOUR HOME,
LETS SAY J WANT TO FINE OUT WHERE 800-241-3466 GOES. THIS IS A VALID
WATS EXTENTER NUMBER BY THE WAY, AND IS USED AS AN EXAMPLE TO SHOW YOU
HOW TO LOCATE THE 800 NUMBER PREFIX,
ALWAYS START WITH THE HIGHEST BAND NUMBER THEN GO DOWN THE “BANDS” TILL
YOU FIN GNE THAT WON’T WORK, THE SUFFIXES ARE AS FOLLOWS:
800-PRE-0010 FOR BAND
800-PRE-0020 FOR RANI!
800-PRE-0030 FOR RANI!
800-PRE-0040 FOR RAND
800-PRE-0050 FOR RANT!
eae
YOU START WITH 800-241-0050 ANI YOU SHOULT GET THE INWATS RECORDING #3
AS ILLUSTRATED ABOVE. SOMETIMES THERE ARE EXCEPTIONS TO THE RULEy AND I WILL
SHOW YOU HOW TO GET AROUND THEM LATER. ASSUMING YOU GOT THE INWATS RECORDINGS
YOU THEN ITAL 800~241-0040 ETC, UNTIL YOU GET A "JANE" RECORDING, AT THIS
TIME: YOU HAVE FOUND THE BAND THAT WON’T WORK. LETS SAY YOU ARE BAND 3 TO
800-241-3466, YOU WOULD FIND THIS RY DOING THE FOLLOWING DIALING SEQUENCE
800-241-0050 (INWATS RECORDING)
800-241-0040 (INWATS RECORDING
)
800-241-0030 (INWATS RECORIIING
)
800-241-0020 (JANE RECORTING
)
(AT THIS POINT, YOU STOP} YOU HAVE FOUND THE BAND )
IT WILL ALWAYS RE THE "LAST" ONE THAT WORKS. IT ISN’T NECESSARY TO DO THIS
TO ALL THE 800 PREFIXES UNLESS YOU WANT TOy IT WILL TAKE A CONSIDERABLE
AMOUNT OF TIME, ANI! IF SOMEONE TOES IT IN CALIFy TO SOMEONE IN NYy THE
INFO WOULT RE USELESS,
REFORE WE START TEARING UF THE SYSTEM, YOU MUST RE ARLE TO IDENTIFY YOUR OWN
TOLL CENTER RECORDING SO YOU WILL BE ABLE TO ELIMINATE THE INVALID 800 NUMBER
PREFIXES. [10 THIS IN THE FOLLOWING WAY: DIAL 800-999-9999 YOU WILL ALWAYS
CET A LOCAL "JANE" RECORTING. REMEMBER EVERY LITTLE IIETAIL AROUT IT. ESPECIALLY
THE VERY FIRST FEW PHRASES, CLICKS, POPS ETC. THE SOONER YOU CAN IDENTIFY
IT; THE FASTER ANI! MUCH EASIER YOU WILL BE ABLE TO "SCAN" THROUGH ALL THE
POSSIBILITYS.
NOW I WILL TELL YOU WHERE TO START» WHAT TO SKIP» ANI) HOW YOU CAN IDENTIFY
INWATS NUMBERS WITHIN YOUR OWN STATE.
START FROM 800-222 ANI GO TO 800-998 SKIPPING ALL TIGITS THAT ENT IN "0"
(IN THE PREFIX) AND NO "1" OR "O" AS THE MIDDLE DIGIT. IF THE LAST DIGIT IN
THE PREFIX ENDS IN "2", IT MEANS IT’S AN “INSTATE" INWATS NUMBER AND TERMINATES
WITHIN YOUR OWN STATE. WARNING: MOST OF THE TIMEs THE INWATS TEST SUFFIX
WON’T WORK ON "INSTATE" NUMBERS.
ALSO, IT MIGHT BE DIFFICULT TO DETERMINE THE AREA COLE OF THE INSTATE NUMBER
BECAUSE ENTIRE 800 EXCHANGES HAVE BEEN SET UP FOR IN-STATE INWATS NUMBERS.
NOW I WILL GET YOU FAMILIAR WITH THE NUMBERS GIVEN AT THE ENT! OF EACH
RECORDING. IN THE PREVIOUS EXAMPLE, "2132" WAS THE NUMBER, AND MEANS 213
IS THE AREA CODE OF THE SWITCHING MACHINE AND THE "2" IS WHICH MACHINE
WITHIN THE AREA CODE. SOMETIMES, THE INWATS TEST NUMBERS WON’T GIVE THESE
NUMBERS, BUT BY IITALING AN INVALID NUMBER, YOU SOMETIMES WILL GET THIS NUMBER
IN THE FUTURE, IN FACT EVEN NOW» THE PHONE CO. IS INSTALLING A NEW TYPE
OF SIGNALLING, ITS CALLED C.C.I.S. AND MEANS (COMMON CONTROL INTER-OFFICE
SIGNALLING). IF YOU HAVE THIS IN YOUR AREA, YOU MIGHT NOT GET A DISTANT
"JANE" RECORIINGs YOU WILL GET A LOCAL "JANE" RECORIIING.
IF YOU FAIL TO GET SOME NUMBER IN THE PREFIX THAT GIVES YOU AN AREA CODE,
LEAVE IT BLANK ANI! FILL IT IN LATER.
COMPILE A LIST SHOWING ALL THE PREFIXES IN THE FOLLOWING WAY?
800-221
249
223
992
===>
9161
THIS LIST WILL HAVE AROUT 400 PREFIXES IN ITy YOU CAN THEN SORT OUT THE LIST
IN ASCENIIING ORLIER (FOR THE AREA CODES) FOR FAST REFERENCE. THEN THE NEXT
TIME YOU REAL ABOUT SOME NEW COMPUTER REING INSTALLED IN SEATTLE, WA$
YOU SIMPLY LOOK UP THE AREA CODE, THEN WITH YOU HANDY LITTLE INWATS LIST
YOU LOOK UP THE 800 NUMBER PREFIX FOR 206 AND FINI! IT TO BE 426, THEN BY
READING THE FOLLOWING ARTICLE, YOU WILL RE ABLE TO FINI) THIS NUMBER. WITHOUT
HAVING TO RELY ON INSIDE SOURCES.
