It's one of the Marx brothers doing recordings for the AIS.

This is the exchange that served Evan Doorbell as he was growing up. Interesting that the switchman, or whoever it is that made the verification recording, still calls the exchange "LYnbrook Three". I guess unlike the Crossbar 5 that used to be there, some things don't change, even with time.

A lot of people on Alaskan intercept recordings sound like this. Must be the cold weather.

I don't hear about old exchange names on the 593 verification recording. Here's a recording I made of it. I get the same recording from the LY9 office, too.

In Calverton, MD (301) 572 9935 rings and goes to an old school recording of "if you would like to make a call" and never supervises. It is interesting however, that the SIT tones are very muffled and quiet in the background, almost like it was on a mag drum player. FWIW, other errors (such as 9936 (DISCO/NIS)) are nice high quality recordings.

I totally couldn't hear the SIT tones at all -- called a couple times too. Think it could have been crosstalk?? How did ya find that one anyway? Cool number.

That BOOP at the beginning is kinda like this cool one (845) 735 9927 which appears earlier in this thread, I think. Anyone know what that initial BOOP tone means/meant?

I was wondering if anyone could tell me what this number Is 1800-720-9190? all I get is a busy signal, and it seems to be unlisted. thanks

When I call that number it says 800 then some other numbers and dials them then I get the busy signal. And according to here http://72.14.209.104...m...t=clnk&cd=1 it is a reverse lookup and address.

I've heard those numbers referred to as 7/11 numbers, because 711 is always in the middle of "those other numbers" so thats what I call them for now. Here's another example: 800.rpm.3080.
Anyways, I know there's some info on this subject if ya check the forums cuz I started a thread back in the day
wondering wtf those fast as fuck tones were for..

Odd sounding reorder on a 1AESS that sounds a little too fast. There is also an odd clunk after you've been connected for a few seconds. Beware, it does supervise.

Some research leads me to believe this is something at the Marines Camp Pendleton in CA... so much for homeland security.

When you dial 412-493-6111, you get a recording that says, "The number you have dialed, 412-472-6111 is not in service." When I actually dialed 412-472-6111, I confirmed that it was actually a disconnected number. There seem to be some weird things in the 412-493 exchange, and I'll post anything else interesting I find.

I can't read these without posting my favorite innoccuous phone hotline: the rejection hotline. It's become so popular, that there's a site for it and multiple lines and numbers accross the country. http://www.rejectionhotline.com/

here's a list of the city numbers http://www.rejection..._and_cities.php

massachussetts local: + 1 + 617 + 861 + 3962

anyone have any other bizarre numbers to call, especially ones that seem to entertain you no matter how many times you've called them?
