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.
