-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi there; I'm having trouble in being able to take live calls when Internet radio broadcasting. I've tried the following in order with no success. I'm thinking in order to do this I will have to buy a mixer. If that is the only way then I'll do it but I was trying this first.
1. Telephone microphone box which gets connected between the phone wall jack and the base of your telephone. The mic cord when connecting to the pc's sound card emmits a lound hum interference noise. 2. Second telephone recording unit. This one gets connected between the base of the phone and the handset. Again, when connecting the mic cable to the pc's sound card I get a humming noise. The advantage of using the first type of box is that you can use a cordless phone since the box is connecting between the wall and the base whereas the second box goes between the handset and the base, so for this one you have to use a corded phone. The third way I tried is by taking a tape recorder and plugging an audio cable from it's headphone jack into the line-in of the pc and then plugging the telephone microphone cord into the mic jack of the tape recorder. Again I got the hum when the cable went from the tape recorder to the pc. If I removed that cable then I could successfully record phone calls onto the tape recorder just the way the telephone microphone is meant to be used. So, big question, is there a special telephone microphone designed for pcs or do I have to use a mixer? What methods can I perhaps try which I have not yet. - -- If you lived today as if it were your last, you'd buy up a box of rockets and fire them all off, wouldn't you? -- Garrison Keillor - -- Raul A.
