i was lookin around the net and i came across this site that tells u how to use a motorola flip phone and an old tv as a type of scanner to listen to calls.
here is what it says
You have a few options here too. The cheapest is to get an old TV capable of picking up UHF. Set a TV to UHF channel 82 or 83 and crank up the volume; you should intercept cellular. The most reliable but most expensive and annoying is to get a scanner. A simple, easy way to tap cellular is to modify a flip phone.
Get a Motorola Flip phone, one of the ugly gray blocky things.
Take off the battery and look real hard at the back of the phone towards the bottom. You should see two gold pins with a space in between them. Get a little piece of foil and wedge it into the hollow to create a third pin. Now put the battery back on.
Dial 68#. You should see a prompt to the affect of ‘ US CODE
Dial 08## to open a frequency.
Input a frequency. (111234, 11223, 11224, 11411 are common)
i was just wonderin if anyone can tell me if this actually works. if seems kind of far fetched. not that i would be able to do it anyway because that would involve me finding one of those old ass motorola flips. but i was just interested to see if anyone can support these instructions and tell me if work.
any help is welcomed
