In New Jersey, most parts a ring back can be accomplished by dialing
 
                                55x-####
 
 ... where x is a number from 1 to 9, and # is the last four digits of
your phone number. In North Jersey, 200 and 400 exchanges work,
sometimes 600 also works, it depends, if you dial 1201-200-#### (#
>0,<9998), it will give a recording saying '201-200-####' is not in
service, then bill you for that call. Called up the local office and
asked what number was 200, I could see the look on their faces  :)
