www.projectmf.com. Phiber created software patches to allow Asterisk PBX software running on a Linux PC to simulate the old 2600 and MF (multifrequency) controlled network of the 50's-60's-70's.
Remember the Esquire article?
I have a projectmf server up on 630-485-2995. It has instructions for using it when you dial in.
Note that you need a source of 2600 Hz tone and an MF dialer (NOT a regular DTMF (Touch-Tone) dialer to make ANY use of this at all.
Perfect legal, as the system is totally private.
Some numbers to try:
Use a short burst of 2600, followed by the MF digits. No "kerchunk" after the 2600...just start dialing.
Can divert a call through the box if you can generate the 2600 and MF.
