Chatterbox-Audio out-Easy!
Posted: Wed Nov 10, 2010 7:25 am
In the past few weeks, I have received many calls requesting a audio out feature from the chatterbox for video recording. Now thats easier than you think as each chatterbox was made from the factory with the facility built in. The facility has a amplified output to suit a Sony camera. Seems like its the in thing to do to record.
Quite simple open the lid, there are two solder pads, in the middle near the socket outlets, connect the output on these pads and you can record directly with no further interfaces. Simply solder two wires on those pads. The PC board comes out with three screws and the cables just slip in. Just add a RCA socket.
Never told anybody before as there was no requirement from new, any extra sockets causes dirt etc to get in.
It outputs the radio, ipod and intercom with everything that goes on in the headsets. But requires no further amplification to drive the camera. If set up properly the ipods muting facility will give a nice audio background music.
Just be careful when drilling holes please !
