Make sure the line is clear and not "latched in". Pick up the handset in the control room and listen for a dial tone.
| |
If you do not hear a dial tone, hang up the receiver and click the switch to "answer." | |
Have the guest dial: 512-471-5312 (The number is on the phone) | |
When the guest calls the phone ring is quiet, almost like clicking instead of ringing, but there is a red light that lights up with each ring. | |
Pick up the receiver and let the guest know what to expect. | |
When you're ready for them to go on the air, press momentarily push the switch to the "Hang Up" position and hang up the receiver. | |
They should be able to hear talent and IFB, when the IFB REMOTE talk button is pressed. | |
The audio operator should press the source button on Channel 11 of the wheatsone until "PHONE" appears in the source window. Do not press and hold for more than 3 seconds...a simple push will do. Then that channel will operate like any other. Adjust levels accordingly. | |
When done with "on-air" portion of the phone conversation, pick up the receiver and push the momentary switch to "Answer". | |
Thank the guest for participating, say your goodbyes and hang up. |
