how can I cause static or interference on the phone line?

Question

I want to cause static or interference on a line that leads from the wall to a callmaster IV made by Lucent. These are phones used in call-centers... The line has eight wires and I think it is the same as

a computer data line?? There is no other power source to the Lucent callmaster, so one of the wires must carry power. The wires are all small however... It is the same cord as is attached to a computer modem

to a computer....

thanks for any help on this...

would a strong radio signal interfer??

For example a mechanical buzzer, or a relay whose contacts supports a heavy load ( being turn on and off quickly).  Brian

I usually just use something like an empty potato chip bag, althoughplain paper works just as well. Hold it up by the mouthpiece and crinkleit in your hand.  ;-)-- Rich Webb   Norfolk, VA

When a cell phone is about to ring, you can hear the electrical noiseon the wired phone if the two are in close proximity.
