- The speaker output is a high level output ( a couple of volts) and the mic
- input is looking for a low level input (microvolts) you need some sort of
- attenuation (like a resistor). The easiest way to do this would be to buy
- an attenuator from Radio Shack. They sell 2 models, One is a cord with a
- connector at each end (I forgot which ones) the other model has a mini
- phono plug on one end and an rca jack on the other (about 2 inches long).
- Both are colored RED!

- Can someone E-mail me the dispatching software?
