AT&T had purchased them by the tens of thousands, to use as part of

some areas having to find the devices one at a time
I don't remember the dates , Ed may remember, several of these boxes
interfered with me working a Vanuatu NSRC dxpedition, years after the "recall."
I heard phones calls clearly, in the ham band, recorded them: One
attorney advised a client not to disclose income from a trust
transaction..the best being an owner of currency exchanges giving
instructions to his various exchanges, as to when to drive the cash
to his home !!!
I was there when the NBC crew /reporter played the call for the
"currency exchange owner"... who was not happy at all... they made
video of my mobile 706 observing calls driving to areas i had located.
i just found remnants of the print workup of the video,,, which ran
about 8 minutes.,,on NBC chicago in 2002
I had to make them rewire it a bit to make this person more of a
detective and less of a stalker,.
I had my fellow cable commissioner take the 'credit' for exposing it ...

thank goodness technology replaced those little boxes, which look
just line todays RCA telco line extenders.
