Telephones and Telos Interface
Listener Lines: KDHX has 2 listener lines:
- Line 1 is (314) 664-3688, which is the single phone line available in AIR1. It can dial long distance, but use needs to be approved by the Chief of Media Production or Music Director.
- Line 2 is (314) 371-4322, the single phone line available in AIR2. This line cannot dial long distance calls.
Both lines are available in Prod 1, as this room is our preferred to be used for long-form phone interview recordings for air or for podcast. In order to move a phone line into the mixing console for air or pre-recording, we'll use the device called TELOS.

Dual Channel Telos in Prod 1
The TELOS device operation is simple:
- choose ON once the guest has been called and available on the phone line. This switches the phone's audio to the inputs channels on the mixer.
- Turn on and bring up the corresponding channel on the mixer. Line 1 = Phone 1 and Line 2 = Phone 2.
- At this point, the caller is no longer available on the handset, and can only hear you via a Mic that is on and volume is up.
- You must wear headphons to continue, as your mic being on automatically turns off the overhead speakers.
Important: make sure to turn the Telos OFF after use, as leaving it on with hold the line, and keep it unavailable for other users.
