- This is a fairly simple modification that can be made to any phone. All it
- does is allow you to take any 2 lines in your house and create a party line. So
- far I have not heard of any problems with it from my friends that have set one
- up and I have too, with only a reduction of volume. I think that the
- convenience of having two people on line at any one time will make up for the
- minor volume loss.

- In some houses the black and yellow are already wired in others you will have
- to go out to your box and rewire it. A good way to figure out which line is
- which is to take the phone you are looking for off the hook. Then you only need
- to take the red and green wires entering your phone and hook them to the
- different pairs of red and green going into the house. You can't hurt anything
- in the phone or telephone by probeing. When you find the pair that you want
- take the black from your line and attach it to the red of the other line then
- take the yellow and attach it to the green line. Now you are all set to go.
- For people with rotary phones you can have one person call you then place the
- second call out to the other person. Though not phreakers tool, the brown box
- can be phun.
