	7:01pm Dave in Vermont: and also field recordings and filed field recordings
	7:03pm Jesse Kaminsky: Hey Dave! Filed under howdy!
	7:04pm northguineahills: Well, someone ended up in the wrong industry. Should have ended up w/ Senor Dingdong.
	7:06pm Jesse Kaminsky: This time the bell tolls for thee!
	7:28pm Dave in Vermont: I don't recall all the details but this is a fascinating episode of Radiolab that this phone stuff reminds me of. www.radiolab.org...
	7:39pm Jesse Kaminsky: @Dave, yeah that's a great episode. I love these tapes, if you want more, Evan has hundreds if not more hours of recordings of the phone systems of the 70's and 80's here: www.evan-doorbell.com
	7:42pm listener james from westwood: B-Boys, creepin' with the phreak-phreak! How do, Jesse and all!
	7:42pm Jesse Kaminsky: Howdy James!
	8:01pm David D: I love this stuff! I'll have to go back and hear it all in the archives.
	8:02pm Jesse Kaminsky: Hey David! I'm going a little extra innings on this phone stuff. @Dave, Joe Engressia from that radiolab episode namechecked in that last segment
	8:07pm David D: I miss calling the time.
	8:11pm Jesse Kaminsky: yeah I kind of miss moviephone even
	8:15pm listener james from westwood: It's just amazing how much of the inner workings of the telecom system were relatively open and available, via technical journals, for so long.
	8:18pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever): Wait, moviephone is gone?? WTF
	8:18pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever): You're making the wait for the next hacker conference feel painfully long
	8:20pm listener james from westwood: Kenzo!!
	8:20pm Jesse Kaminsky: Hey Kenzo! Actually, I'm not positive that it is, maybe it was me that moved on :(
	8:26pm listener james from westwood: The range of tech being discussed! Hearing mercury switches earlier blew my mind. Just what you want in a workplace, a heavy metal!
	8:26pm David D: Thanks for going overtime, this is all quite fascinating. Hi Kenzo!
	8:32pm listener james from westwood: Good narrator voice, on top of being informative!
	8:34pm David D: James: Absolutely, it is amazing to hear the story behind those that we usually hardly even notice.
	8:34pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever): I highly recommend the HOPE conference, every other summer in NYC. Always lots of us* old phone phreakers there, and always some talks/presentations/demos on the subject. *of course I've never actually done this
	8:37pm listener james from westwood: "For informational purposes only."
	8:37pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever): I mean or so I've heard
	8:39pm listener james from westwood: As someone who all but sprinted home w/ his first smartphone so he could put a Conet numbers tone on it as the ringtone, I declare tonight's exploration into electronic mystery utterly riveting.
	8:40pm listener james from westwood: (The Lincolnshire Poacher, to be precise: www.youtube.com...)
	8:44pm David D: Getting curiouser and curiouser...
	8:47pm listener james from westwood: I keep thinking about the bit of electronic chatter the probe droid emits in "The Empire Strikes Back." "But it won't be around long." (looks at smartphone) Ain't that the truth?
	8:48pm coelacanth∅: greetings Jesse and all
	8:50pm Jesse Kaminsky: Hey coelacanthø!
	8:52pm coelacanth∅: i use to love all the weird shit the phones had to offer back in the day. i did record some of it too, but not nearly as much as i should've.
	8:52pm David D: Wait, what about Northern Boulevard?
	9:00pm coelacanth∅: haha i remember her voice! i wrote a song about it!
	9:00pm David D: So many Long Island references - and even the operator sounds familiar.
	9:00pm coelacanth∅: ( -the recorded message voice, that is)
	9:01pm Jesse Kaminsky: I think he lived on Long Island and Ben, not sure who Ben is exactly, lived in Queens
	9:02pm Jesse Kaminsky: The Jane Barbe voice ghost!
	9:02pm listener james from westwood: That mechanical tape drum is singing along to "O Superman."
	9:04pm coelacanth∅: damn, i remember that sound too. -i miss that stuff. (then again i miss a lot about older technology)
	9:14pm coelacanth∅: i definitely had that happen. i also once got to hear, with the person i was on the phone with, both ends of someone else's conversation.
	9:15pm coelacanth∅: (very clearly...and they couldn't hear us -cuz we tried to make them!)
	9:15pm northguineahills: It's been a while since I've had cross-talk bleeding..
	9:19pm coelacanth∅: Wow!
	9:50pm northguineahills: Who is in the Grumbling Fur Machine Time Orchestra?
	9:52pm northguineahills: You need to do a show w/ nothing but gibberish(ish) track titles....
	9:56pm Jesse Kaminsky: That is a really appealing dwarkhsichoffff
	9:58pm northguineahills: danks Jesse!
	9:59pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Jesse! i have to return for what i missed. tchau, all

May 23, 2017: vintage phone phreaks

Listen to this show: Pop-up listen Pop-up player!

Artist	Track	Album	Label	Year	Comments
Evan Doorbell	QC514-285ESS1 "QC514-285ESS1" by "Evan Doorbell"			1974	This is a #1 ESS in downtown Montreal, featuring the Canadian "Pre- 'Dial Tone First'" arrangement, which was implemented on blue Northern Centurion coin phones. I don't know whether this was a "semi-DTF" arrangement or a crude temporary DTF arrangement which allowed things like "0" to be dialed without a coin.

Evan Doorbell	Busy signals and ring sounds around the U.S.			1971
Evan Doorbell	Network Sounds of the 70's (1971-1981)
Rian Treanor	Damage B2 "Damage B2" by "Rian Treanor"	Pattern Damage	The Death Of Rave	2016
