Also, American Printing House for the Blind has a box that has 4 input jacks
in the back, with their own individual volume controls, and a single output
jack in the front for headphones. This may also prove to be useful. Jerry

It sounds like you will need a mixer board of some type to do this. A
friend of mine does this type of set up where he works. He has 2
computers, a desktop mic, a cell phone, his desk phone all hooked up to
his and still has space for more. He says that with the unit he has you
don't have to switch between them and needs only one headset to do all of
it with.

Subject: [Blind-Computing] Audio Challenges
Hello all:
I have a real challenge, and I am thinking that someone on this list may
have an idea as to a solution.
Frequently, I will have telephone conversations with a client while
reviewing a document on screen. So, I have the screen reader talking to
me through my headset. I also use the microphone on my headset to
dictate to my computer using Naturally Speaking.
At present, my office phone is inaccessible. So, I propose to use my
iPhone.
The computer in use has two Jacks: a microphone jack and an audio jack.
The iPhone, by contrast, uses a single jack.
I am wondering how I can use a single headset with a microphone that will
allow me simultaneously to listen to my iPhone and listen to my computer
and then, alternatively, talk either to the person at the other end of
the line on the telephone or talk to my computer.
Surely I am not the only person with this problem.
I have tried to explain this situation to Radio Shack Personnel. They
are completely stumped.
In fact, they have told me such a configuration is impossible. Indeed,
my searches on the Internet have proved futile. Just trying to find an
adapter to allow a combination microphone/audio jack to interface with
separate microphone and audio jacks has proved challenging.
Thanks.
I. Edward Marquette
