// Sydney, Australia 9999 Scan (+61-02-9XXX-9999)

I used my VoIP to dial every 9999 in Sydney. Or at least 02-9XXX-9999 if you want to
get technical. It took around 10 hours, but I listened to every one using ToneLoc and the
high-impedance function on my Harris TS-22 test set. I'm confident nobody has ever
done this before. It yielded some interesting results--not quite as juicy as Tokyo :-) but
still some very interesting finds. I've categorized the numbers into the following different
sections: recordings, test, and bulk notes. I did not keep notes for every number, simply
because it would have been far too boring and taken too much time--also I am lazy. So I
only listened for the good stuff. You can see in the bulk of the notes that I thought about
keeping extensive notes initially, but that I changed my mind quickly. There were a lot of
businesses and people answering. A few more voicemail systems. There were some
repeat instances of recordings or messages that you will find in the bulk list. So it goes
to show that these few test numbers are not alone. Since I dialed these from the US
on ToneLoc, I've kept them in the American dial-string (011 is the international access
code, and 61 is the country code.) A few people got confused over my Tokyo scan. You
may find different things on the test numbers when you dial them from Sydney; if you do
please e-mail me (brisk@netins.net). Anyway, enjoy.
