How to Wiretap Phone Line with DIY Circuit

Had to reupload! see comments. I like to record my phone calls directly on camera… for research purposes… so I designed some circuit to wiretap the land line directly to my camera audio input.

    Back in the day they sold televisions made like that! A dozen valves, dozens of passive components, transformers, all made by soldering components directly to each other, and to the pins of valve sockets. Sometimes they'd have a tag strip, a strip of phenolic-impregnated paper, early PCB material, with metal tags with loops on each tag, attached along either side. The tags weren't connected to each other, unless you wired them together, but usually components just spanned between them, and each other, and the valve sockets etc, flying through the air (flappin' in the breeze!) like some sort of scifi architecture! Then one day somebody invented the printed circuit board and it all got a lot more boring, though probably safer, and allowing more complex circuits to be made. Imagine a PC, with it's 8-layer motherboard and hundreds of tracks, replaced by wires zooming around the place and chips hovering everywhere. Would look like a Shenzhen rat's nest!

    *Fun fact:* The term for the polarity of the phone line, "tip" and "ring", refers to the connectors on the switchboards operators used back before tone based switching. It doesn't mean any type of signaling, but rather it refers to the shape of the connector which is reminiscent of a quarter-inch mono channel audio jack. So it literary means the "tip" (+ side) of the audio jack and the "ring" or "sleeve" (- side) below the tip of the audio jack.

The pulse is literally closing the circuit really fast, this video shows it with an LED: kzread.info/dash/bejne/ZH6gqbuepLXMmZM.html Modern phone lines work with tone dialing where a frequency is sent for each key instead of pulses.

    Residential POTS lines are normally-open 48v D.C. circuits, the “hook” is a switch that closes the circuit which allows a dial-tone. Your particular “line” is a loop referred to as a “local loop” which terminates at a telephone switch operated by your carrier. In a business, typically you would have a PSTN telephone network that connects to a PBX that directly handles internal calls to extensions, the PBX will also have either an ATA that converts analog to SIP and connects back to an IPPBX in a VoIP system in a hybrid network or to a 23 channel PRI, usually a T1 interface back to your carrier for external calls. From that point on the infrastructure will remain the same as a residential one except businesses typically have multiple lines/subsequent numbers. The infrastructure within the walls of your company will typically fed by a 25 or 50 pair whip punched down into one or several 66 block(s), or 110 block(s) depending on the architecture of the network. Those blocks can be daisy chained/piggy backed together or be fed directly into another 25 or 50 pair amphenol whip connected to a voice gateway and out to a provider. T1 PRIs are significant because they are 24 channel circuits (in North America) at 1.544mbps bandwidth that operate at a set rate (hence PRI “primary rate interface”) controlled by the DS0 or framing channel which allows the line to operate at a set and predictable rate (enabling a clear voice call)....could go on for days

    He had to mute out the original sound. The individual tones, like when dialing on a keypad, all have their own unique sound. That’s how automated phone systems can do stuff like “Press a number to be transferred to X department”. So someone was just recording the original dialing tones and then feeding them through an online decoder

    After that sound you heard there were rapidly changing number tones (like the ones you hear when you press the numbers when dialing) in the muted part. That's how landline phones are able to show you who's calling. That tone sequence is the Caller ID, and people were decoding it manually.

    6 жыл бұрын

    It's probably not for professional condenser mics which take 48V nominal (usually work from 9V or 12V and up, so much of the cheaper phantom host gear doesn't bother with full nominal voltage), but for electret capsules, which take something like 2-5V via a couple kOhm current limiting resistor. It might be conditional, i.e. they might be measuring the impedance of the microphone, but you normally expect electret mics to be directly supported by cameras.

  • @meowcula

    @meowcula

    Makes sense, its been ages since i've used a camera, either way it's to power active (non-dynamic) mics. I remember there being a phantom setting on the Canon SLII but again, this was ages ago and likely things have changed a lot toward lower voltage active mics.

    ElectroBOOM, the DC voltage you see from the camera as soon as you start recording is the supply voltage for electret microphone capsules.

Also you can just add a layer of text on the video, just copy paste each time you edit for the circuit component you are talking about, or just ELI5 all of the circuit. I am IT engineer and love your videos, I know you prepare for them but honestly they are way more entertaining to people that learned this stuff in school.

    I like the look of those keysight 'scopes, but just can't afford one right now, but that said, there should be plenty of older 'scopes on eBay etc. I remember building a similar circuit many years ago, but never really got it to work properly. I seem to recall that it prevented anyone from making outgoing calls - Not a bad result really, considering that I was the one paying the phone bill!
