When you set up a computer to dial a given range of phone numbers and log the results.

455-4320
455-4321
455-4322
455-4323
455-4324

Et cetera... The point is to find modems and other neat things you can dial into and play with. A hold-over from before the Internet era when hackers played with phones. The modern-day version might be the address scan.
